Women's national association football team representing Gibraltar
The Gibraltar women's national football team represents the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar in international women's football . The Gibraltar Football Association is a member of UEFA and FIFA , and is yet to field a women's team in FIFA Women's World Cup or UEFA Women's Championship qualification. However they entered the UEFA Women's Nations League for the first time in the 2025 edition , marking their first official competitive tournament, which will lead to them entering qualification for the 2027 Women's World Cup . Prior to this, the team had largely been restricted to appearances at the biennial Island Games football tournaments, first appearing in the 2011 edition .
History
Women's football is still in its infancy in Gibraltar, with only three teams participating in the Gibraltar Women's Football League in the 2018–19 season. However it has grown with 5 teams competing in 2021–22. In 2014, Gibraltar hosted a women's development tournament organised by UEFA , losing 1–0 in its first game to Andorra .[ 2] The side lost all three games, against Andorra, Luxembourg and an Algarve XI.[ 3] However, as a development tournament, these games are not recognised as full internationals.
Since then, Gibraltar's involvement in UEFA -sanctioned women's football has been limited to sending under-16 girls' teams to participate in development tournaments, most recently in Malta in 2019.[ 4] In June 2021 the team made their debut in a full international, in a 4–1 defeat to Liechtenstein .[ 5]
Since 2011 the Gibraltar women's team has taken part in the Island Games , and the players have yet to take part in a UEFA Women's Championship since their FA's admission into the organisation. However, in November 2021 it was announced that an under-19 team would be formed and entered into qualification for the 2023 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship .[ 6]
Gibraltar did not enter the inaugural UEFA Women's Nations League .[ 7] However, they joined for the first time in October 2024, ahead of the 2025 edition , marking the women's team's first official competitive international tournament.[ 8] [ 9]
