2018 WAFU Women's Cup, set in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. Their manager since January 2018 is Kaï Tomety.[3] Togo's home stadium is the Stade de Kégué, located in Lomé
.

Togo has never qualified for a

FIFA Women's World Rankings
for not having played more than five matches against officially ranked teams.

History

Togo did not compete in their first FIFA-sanctioned match until 2006, when they played five games.[6][7] In their first game, on 19 February, Togo beat São Tomé and Príncipe 3–0.[7] The team beat São Tomé and Príncipe again by a score of 6–0 on 26 February 2006 in Togo.[7][8] In its next two games, Togo lost 0–9 and 1–3 to Congo. The team has since played just one match. In 2007, the team competed at the Tournoi de Cinq Nations held in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. There, Togo was paired with Mali and Ivory Coast on Pool B. The team lost 0–5 to Ivory Coast before being disqualified for bringing a club team, MBA Lomé, to the competition in violation of tournament rules.[9][10]

The team was expected to participate in the

2018 edition in Ghana.[12]

Now coached by

Afi Woedikou
scored Togo's only goal in the tournament against the latter, as result of a penalty kick.

Background and development

The national football association, the

handball and volleyball.[6] Football's popularity is growing, however. The country had 380 registered players in 2006, up from 180 in 2000.[6] Women's football was first organised in the country in 2000.[14] By 2006, there were 105 football clubs in Togo, 11 of which were for women only.[6] A national women's competition was created by 2006 and was still operating in 2009.[6][14] While there are no school, university or regional competitions for women's football, there was an active under-17 women's league in 2009.[14][15] In 2010, a women's football competition involving 50 women's teams was organised by the German embassy, which provided teams with football kits and footballs.[16][17][18]
