The 2024 Rugby Africa Women's Cup was the tournament's fourth edition and was held in Antananarivo, Madagascar from 4 to 12 May.[1] The champion qualified directly for the 2025 Rugby World Cup and also for the 2024 WXV 2 competition.[2][3] The runner-up qualified for the 2024 WXV 3 and also has a chance of qualifying for the 2025 Women's World Cup as the remaining six places will be awarded to the highest-finishing teams in WXV who have not qualified via the 2021 Rugby World Cup or the regional tournaments.[2][3]

South Africa defended their title successfully and booked their spot in next year's Women's Rugby World Cup.[4][5] Runners-up, Madagascar, will be making their WXV debut in September.[4]
