The Kuwait women's national football team represents Kuwait in international women's association football and is governed by the Kuwait Football Association (KFA).
History The Organizing Committee of GCC Women's Sports Committee organizes women's football events in Kuwait in an effort to support the women's national team, with blue shirts, white shorts, and blue socks as the main kit colors.
As of 1999, the women's national team had not competed at the Women's World Cup. They had never entered the Asian Women's Championship as of 1999. As of June 2017, the team was not ranked in the world by FIFA.
Background and development
In 2012 it was written that development of women's football in the Middle East and central Asia dated back only about ten years. The national federation became a FIFA affiliate in 1962.
The first known matches from the women's national team came in the 2010 WAFF Championship where they lost both matches to Palestine and the UAE.
After several friendly matches, they participated in 2014 AFC Women's Asian Cup qualification for the first time, with heavy losses against Uzbekistan, Jordan, and Lebanon resulting in the FA disbanding the team to focus on youth football. A squad would be assembled in 2017 to play against a team from the British Military Corps, but no further matches have been noted.
