The Confédération Africaine de Football’s CAF's 47th Ordinary General Assembly will be held in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo on Monday, 6 October, 2025.
The Ordinary General Assembly will bring together leading figures in African football, including the presidents of CAF’s 54 Member Associations, representatives from the six Zonal Unions, and senior football officials from across the continent.
CAF President Dr Patrice Motsepe will chair the 47th Ordinary General Assembly.
The Assembly reviews competitions, adopts the budget and audited accounts, considers statutory matters and agrees the priorities that will shape African football’s growth. Each member association has one vote, ensuring decisions reflect the will of the entire CAF family.
The OGA is often described as the “Parliament of African football”: it is where the sport’s leaders review progress and make binding decisions that affect competitions, development and governance.
In a season that includes the CAF Africa Cup of Nations, Morocco 2025, and continued expansion of women’s and youth competitions, delegates will look to sustain momentum in infrastructure, club licensing, refereeing, coaching education and commercial growth.
Resolutions adopted here set the framework for the next 12 months across the continent.
