The national team, led by head coach Ko Hyun-bok, entered the center for the first time since the establishment of the Cheonan Korea Football Center and completed the final training in Korea for five days.
Captain Kim Han-ah (Jeonnam Gwangyang Girls' High School), Jeong Yu-jeong, Ryu Ji-hae, Baek Ji-eun (Ulsan Hyundai High School), Lim Ye-ji, and Han Kook-hee (Gyeongbuk Port Women's High School) will participate for the second consecutive time following the 2024 U-17 Women's World Cup last year. In addition, Woo Seo-yeon (Jinju Girls' Middle School, Gyeongsangnam-do), who was born in 2010, was included in the final entry.
Starting in 2025, FIFA changed the U-17 Women's World Cup from the existing two-year cycle to hosting it every year. This is the first year of the change, and for Asia, four Asian teams, including South Korea, have advanced to the finals based on their recent performances at three age groups (2024 AFC U-17 Women's Asian Cup, 2019 AFC U-16 Women's Championship, and 2017 AFC U-16 Women's Championship) without a separate qualifying round.
The women's U-17 national team conducted a total of seven domestic training sessions, starting with Mokpo convocation training in November last year, and also conducted local adaptation training at a friendly tournament held in Morocco in May. The national team will play a week of adaptation training and a practice match against Mexico's women's U-17 national team in Mohamedia, Morocco, before moving to Rabat, where three group games will be held.
The national team in Group E will play against Ivory Coast on the 19th, Spain on the 22nd, and Colombia on the 25th. Colombia is the third group match after 2024 and 2018. In this tournament, 24 teams will be divided into six groups to play the group stage, with the first and second-place teams in each group automatically advancing to the round of 16, and the top four teams out of the six third-place teams in the group will advance to the round of 16.
