2009 ICC Africa Under-19 Championships
The 2009 ICC Africa Under-19 Championships were a series of two events that served as qualification for the 2009 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup Qualifier. The first stage of the championship saw the affiliate nations competing for a place in the finals. This competition was held from 27 February to 5 March in Maputo, Mozambique. Initially it was intended for two teams to go through but due to concern over Kenya's ability, they were included in the qualifying finals limiting the free spaces to one. As a result, only the champions, Sierra Leone, made it through into the eight team finals.
The finals were held from 27 April to 4 May in Lusaka, Zambia. The top two teams qualified for the international qualifier and these were Uganda and surprisingly, the affiliate team of Sierra Leone.
