The FIBA Africa Women's Basketball League is the highest continental tournament in African women's basketball. It is the counterpart of the men's basketball competition FIBA Africa Clubs Champions Cup. It is organized by the FIBA Africa and played by the champions of the leagues of the African countries.

The tournament was known as the FIBA Africa Women's Basketball Cup until the league rebranded in 2023 in the "Africa Women's Basketball League" (AWBL).[1] A year later, the name was slightly adjusted to "Women's Basketball League Africa" (WBLA).[2]
