As part of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations football tournament being hosted by Morocco from July 2 to 23, the President of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) announced on Saturday, July 2, that the overall prize pool of the competition is increasing from $975,000 to $2,400,000, an increase of nearly $1.5 million.
