Defending champions Zambia have been drawn in Group B of this month’s COSAFA Under-17 Championship that will be hosted by Mauritius.

Zambia will take on neighbours Malawi as well as Madagascar and Mozambique in their group.

According to COSAFA, the youth championship will be played from July 22-31.

Hosts Mauritius are in Group A with former winners South Africa as well as Namibia and the Seychelles.

The tournament will be played at two venues in Mauritius, the George V Stadium in Curepipe and St. François Xavier Stadium in the capital Port Louis.

The last COSAFA Under-17 Championship was played in Zimbabwe in 2014 as part of the AUSC Region 5 Under-20 Youth Games and saw Zambia defeat the hosts 3-0 in the Final.
