CEDEAO Cup

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The CEDEAO Cup was an international men's football tournament for nations in the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS; Communauté Economique Des Etats de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, CEDEAO). The tournament was held biannually between 1983 and 1991, and may also have taken place in 1977, but few data are known.
