The 2006 FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship, to take place in Russia from 17 August to 3 September 2006, is the officially recognized world championship for women's under-20 national football teams. Matches will be held in four Moscow stadiums (Dinamo, Lokomotiv, Podmoskovie Sports Palace and Torpedo Stadion) and one in St. Petersburg (Petrovskiy Stadion).
This is the third women's world youth championship organized by FIFA, but the first with an age limit of 20. The first two events, held in Canada in 2002 and Thailand in 2004, had an age limit of 19. FIFA changed the age limit to prepare for the creation of an under-17 championship in 2008.
Tournament
The draw for the tournament was held in Moscow's City Hall on 22 March, 2006. 14 of the 16 competing teams (the two CAF teams were then still undecided) learned their first-round groupings.
The 16 participating U-20 women's teams from the six FIFA confederations are:
- AFC (3 slots): China, Korea DPR and Australia
- CAF (2 slots): Nigeria and DR Congo.
- CONCACAF (3 slots): United States, Canada and Mexico
- CONMEBOL (2 slots:) Brazil and Argentina
- OFC (1 slot): New Zealand
- UEFA (host + 4 slots): Russia, France, Germany, Finland and Switzerland

Scorers
TriviaThis championship will be the first time an Australian soccer team has played in a worldwide competition as an Asian Football Confederation team. However, the country's senior men's team was the first to play as an AFC team, competing in its first 2007 Asian Cup qualifier in February 2006, two months before the AFC qualifiers for this competition. Before 1 January 2006, Australia was a member of the Oceania Football Confederation. External links |
