History

The Senegal women’s national football team, governed by the Senegalese Football Federation (FSF), was formally organized in the early 2000s to represent the country in international women’s football. Initial efforts to develop the team faced challenges such as limited resources and infrastructure. The establishment of domestic women’s leagues in 2009 and grassroots programs in subsequent years created pathways for player development. [2]

The team qualified for its first Africa Women Cup of Nations (AWCON) in 2012, held in Equatorial Guinea, but did not advance beyond the group stage. After a decade-long absence, Senegal returned to the AWCON in 2022, hosted by Morocco, where they reached the quarterfinals before being eliminated.

Senegal has also competed in regional tournaments, such as the West African Football Union (WAFU) Zone B Women’s Cup, with notable participation in 2019. Despite not yet qualifying for the FIFA Women’s World Cup, the team continues to gain experience through regional and continental competitions.
