South Africa head coach Simphiwe Dludlu has named a strong squad to face Zambia in the first round, first-leg of the U17 Women's World Cup qualifier in Lusaka later this month.
Dludlu had earlier called up 30 players, comprising the majority that featured at the 2019 Cosafa U17 Women's Cup before trimming the squad to 20 ahead of the trip to Zambia on Wednesday.
Karabo Mohale, Taylor-Ann Berkovic, Tarran January, Snothisiwe Jele, Ronnel Donelly, Christy Noble, Shannon Macomo, Palesa Makaloba, Inathi Makaya and Emihle Hallam were those dropped.
