## African school football championship

[edit]

The 2023 CAF African Schools Football Championship Qualifiers took place in Cairo, Egypt.[5][6] Libya won the boys category and Morocco won the girls category, thus both qualifying African Schools Football Championship Finals.[7][8][9]

## Controversy

[edit]

On 20 November 2009, the Egyptian Football Association withdrew its membership citing the incidents that accompanied the playoff between Egypt and Algeria,[10][11] but returned in 2011.[citation needed]
