The 2024 CAFA U-15 Girls Championship was the fourth edition of the CAFA U-15 Girls Championship, the biennial international women's football youth championship of Central Asia organized by the Central Asian Football Association (CAFA) for the women's under-15 national teams of Central Asia. Tajikistan hosted the tournament from 21 to 25 May.[1] A total of four teams played in the tournament, with players born on or after 1 January 2009 eligible to participate.
