The draw for the 2026 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, hosted by Morocco, took place on Thursday, May 21, 2026, in Zurich, Switzerland. Morocco's national U17 women's team, the Lioncelles, were placed in Group A alongside Germany, Argentina, and New Zealand.
This is the first time Morocco has hosted a FIFA women's world cup at any age level. The tournament is scheduled to run from October 17 to November 8, 2026, across four Moroccan cities: Rabat, Casablanca, Marrakech, and El Jadida.
None of the teams in Group A have previously won the U-17 Women's World Cup. Germany's best result was runner-up in 2012, while Argentina and New Zealand have not advanced past the group stage. Morocco qualified as the host nation.
