CAF Mandates New Coaching Standards for African Football

This deep dive discusses the Confederation of African Football (CAF) implementing new coaching requirements for national teams and clubs participating in its competitions, requiring CAF A or Pro licenses, or equivalent international certifications. These regulations, aiming to professionalize African football, apply to various tournaments including the AFCON, Champions League, and youth competitions. A grace period until the 2026/2027 season is provided for existing coaches to obtain the necessary qualifications, while newly appointed coaches must already meet the standards to avoid penalties such as stadium access denial and ineligibility to register as team officials. This initiative also connects to broader discussions about improving African football's quality and attracting greater investment to foster talent and infrastructure.
