CAF decided to cancel this edition of the tournament on 30 June 2020 at an executive virtual meeting, citing "challenging conditions" caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in Africa and rather approve the creation of the CAF Women's Champions League which began in November the following year.

Nigeria were the defending champions.
