The tournament is slated to run from December 13th to December 19th and will involve the U17 women’s teams of Sweden and Thailand. The tournament will be played out in Mumbai at Andheri Sports Complex.

This is a preparatory tournament being held in lieu of the upcoming FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup to be held next year in India. Newly appointed India U17 Coach Thomas Dennerby will look to use this tournament to test out the pool of players that he had the option of picking from the recently concluded Hero U17 women’s championship 2019.
