The championship will also featured capacity-building courses for coaches and referees, aimed at strengthening the development of women’s futsal in the region.^[1]

SAFF General Secretary Purushottam Kattel stated that Thailand was selected due to its infrastructure, accessibility, and limited futsal experience among member nations. Potential India–Pakistan logistical considerations were also cited as a factor.^[5]

All seven SAFF member associations made their debut in the inaugural edition.^[6]

The following squads were announced for the tournament.

• (C) Captain
• (GK) Goalkeeper

Due to the limited number of SAFF futsal referees, SAFF appointed 10 futsal referees to officiate the tournament, nine of whom were from outside the regional body.
