Flamingos have been drawn in Group A alongside hosts Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and New Zealand for the 2024 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup

Flamingos of Nigeria have been drawn in Group A alongside hosts Dominican Republic, Ecuador, and New Zealand for the 2024 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup.

The Flamingos have been to every edition of the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, missing only the 2018 edition. Continental confederations told FIFA it would be difficult to create a second championship with the age limits in place at the time. The first U-17 Women’s World Cup tournament was held in 2008 in New Zealand, and North Korea emerged as the first-ever winners after defeating the USA 2-1 in the final.
