Sport, arts and culture minister Gayton McKenzie has clarified South Africa has not been confirmed as host of the 2026 Womens Africa Cup of Nations Wafcon in response to comments made by his deputy minister.
McKenzie said South Africa has expressed its willingness to support the Confederation of African Football Caf and step in as hosts should Morocco withdraw from staging the tournament.
Deputy sport minister Peace Mabe said at the Hollywoodbets Super League Awards ceremony on Sunday that South Africa was stepping in to replace the North African country.
