The 2015 African U-20 Women's World Cup Qualifying Tournament was the 8th edition of the African U-20 Women's World Cup Qualifying Tournament, the biennial international youth football competition organised by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) to determine which women's under-20 national teams from Africa qualify for the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup. Players born on or after 1 January 1996 were eligible to compete in the tournament.
The top two teams of the tournament qualified for the 2016 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Papua New Guinea as the CAF representatives.
Ghana and Nigeria qualified for the World Cup like in the last three editions.
A total of 19 CAF member national teams entered the qualifying rounds.
Qualification ties were played on a home-and-away two-legged basis. If the aggregate score was tied after the second leg, the away goals rule would be applied, and if still level, the penalty shoot-out would be used to determine the winner (no extra time would be played).
The two winners of the third round qualified for the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.
The schedule of the qualifying rounds was as follows.
Note: Sierra Leone withdrew. First leg of DR Congo v Gabon was postponed to 9 May due to field problems, then to 16 May due to Gabon missing the flight.
