The Algerian women’s national football team has announced its squad for the upcoming Algeria WAFCON 2026 Prep Camp, scheduled to run from February 24 to March 7, 2026, as preparations intensify ahead of the next Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
The training camp forms a crucial part of Algeria’s build-up to the continental tournament, with the technical crew aiming to strengthen team cohesion, assess player fitness levels, and fine-tune tactical strategies.
The camp will feature both home-based and foreign-based players, reflecting the federation’s commitment to assembling a balanced and competitive squad.
As part of the program, Algeria will take on long-time North African rivals Egypt in a double-header international friendly.
The two matches are expected to provide a stern test for the Algerian side, offering valuable match experience against quality opposition.
The friendlies against Egypt are particularly significant, as both nations are working to re-establish themselves as major contenders in African women’s football.
The encounters will give the Algerian coaching staff an opportunity to experiment with formations, evaluate new call-ups, and solidify combinations ahead of WAFCON 2026 qualifiers and competitive fixtures.
Team officials believe the early preparations will give Algeria a competitive edge, especially with the growing intensity and quality across women’s football on the continent.
The camp will also serve as a platform for emerging talents to stake their claim for a permanent spot in the national team setup.
With momentum building and preparations underway, Algeria’s focus remains clear: to build a resilient squad capable of making a strong statement at WAFCON 2026.
