The competition follows a single round-robin format in the group-stage. This is then followed by two semi-finals between the top four sides. The teams that lose this semi-final battle in the 3rd place play off. The teams that win the semi-finals will move into the final, with silverware on the line.
Key Teams & 2025 Season Prospects
| Team | 2025 Prospects |
|---|---|
| Brazil | Brazil return to the tournament for the first times since 2022 looking to better a disappointing sixth placed finish last time. |
| Cameroon | This will be Cameroon's second successive appearance at the tournament having finished last in their first appearance. |
| Malawi | Like Cameroon, Malawi are looking to better their seventh placed finish in their second outing at the competition. |
| Nigeria | Nigeria have continued to be a midtable side, with three fourth placed finishes coming alongside a fifth placed finish in 2022. The focus will be on cutting out needless defeats and building towards the top three. |
| Rwanda | The only ever-present side in the competition, Rwanda will be disappointed with their one title in 10 attempts. Having never finished lower than fourth, the nation will target building on their third placed finish last year. |
| Sierra Leone | This will be Sierra Leone's debut season in the competition. |
| Tanzania | Tanzania have a 100% winning record at the tournament having entered in 2019 and 2022 and winning both iterations. |
| Uganda | Of the sides playing in 2025, Uganda are the most decorated having won three titles including in the 2024 iteration. |
| Zimbabwe | Zimbabwe played in this tournament for the first time last year and ended in second, showing they have the quality to battle with the best. |
History & Winners

Since then, all of Botswana, Brazil, Cameroon, Germany, Malawi, Mali, Namibia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Tanzania and Zimbabwe have all taken part at different stages.
