The Egypt national under-17 football team (Arabic: منتخب مصر الوطني تحت 17 سنة), nicknamed The Pharaohs (Arabic: الفراعنة), is the national team of Egypt Under-17 and is administered by the Egyptian Football Association. The team was cancelled and as a result Egypt withdrew from the 2013 African Under-17 Championship qualification due to security reasons.
