Under-20 Women Team coach Charles Haalubono has unveiled his 35-member provisional squad for next month’s 2024 FIFA Women World Cup qualifier against DR Congo.
Zambia will host Congo on October 7 in the first round, first leg tie at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka.
Haalubono has promoted several under-17 girls that featured at the Region Five Games in Malawi last December.
The team has since entered a residential camp in Lusaka to prepare for the match against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The reverse fixture is on October 14 in Kinshasa.
