The Cook Islands women's national under-17 football team is the national U-17 team of the Cook Islands and is controlled by the Cook Islands Football Association. With a population of around 24,000 people it remains one of the smallest FIFA teams.
The Cook Islands participated two times so far in the OFC U-17 Women's Championship, in 2012 and in 2016. In 2012 they managed to reach the third place, out of four participants. Tepaeru Toka was the big star as she managed to score three goals during that tournament. She also scored the Cook Islands first goal ever, in a 3–2 loss against Papua New Guinea. In 2016 they participated again. This time was less successful as they became third in the group and therefore missed qualification for the semi-final. Moeroa Harmon however managed to gain some recognition as she managed to score a hattrick in a 5–1 victory against Vanuatu.
The OFC Women's Under 17 Qualifying Tournament is a tournament held once every two years to decide the only qualification spot for Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) and representatives at the FIFA U-17 World Cup.
