30 June 2025 – Banyana Banyana midfielder Regina Mogolola believes that only teamwork will help the South African senior women’s national team in their effort to defend the CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title they won back in 2022.

Mogolola was speaking after an energy-sapping training session in Casablanca, Morocco, where the Sasol-sponsored African Champions are continuing with their preparations ahead of the tournament that kicks off on Saturday (5 July 2025).

“We are feeling good, and we are prepared. We know what it will take to defend our title, and we will have to work as a team – play for one another, support each other, fight for one another. So, teamwork will win the day, unlike in tennis where you are on your own,” said Mogolola.

The WAFCON will take place between 5-26 July 2025 and coach Dr Desiree Ellis’ charges will be based in Oujda.

Mogolola makes a return to the national team setup after an absence of seven years and she is looking forward to the tournament – she won silver in 2018 in Ghana with Banyana Banyana in the same competition.

“It’s nice to come and learn again. I am excited, and I am looking forward to representing the country. I also appreciate the opportunity that I got the call up again, but it’s all about working hard and not giving up when faced with challenges,” added Mogolola.

The African Champions will depart Casablanca on Friday (4 July) and travel to their base camp in Oujda. First up will be a clash against Ghana in the tournament on Monday (7 July). They will then tackle Tanzania and Mali on Friday (11 July) and Monday (14 July) respectively.

All the Group C matches will be played at the Honneur Stadium in Oudja.
