Meet Tila: The Elegant and Powerful Mascot of the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup Morocco 2026
The FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup Morocco 2026 is set to showcase the best young female football talent from around the globe, and to add to the excitement, Tila™, the official mascot, has made her debut. Inspired by the majestic caracal, a wild cat native to various regions including Morocco, Tila embodies both elegance and strength, reflecting the skill and agility of the future stars of women’s football. The tournament will take place from October 17 to November 7, where 24 of the world’s top U-17 women’s national teams will compete for the ultimate title.
The name Tila is derived from the Amazigh word for "mountain," symbolizing a connection to nature and a reminder of the quiet strength that characterizes the caracal. With her graceful movements and impressive jumping ability, Tila represents the finesse and determination that will be on display on the Moroccan pitches in just a few days. This charming mascot is not only a representation of the competition but also an ode to the talents and femininity of young female players, embodying a blend of power and gentleness.
As the tournament approaches, Tila is ready to stand alongside fans who will witness the emergence of a new generation of female footballers, all striving with ambition and teamwork to become the next U-17 world champions.
