The Oman women's national football team, represents Oman in international women's association football and is governed by Oman Football Association (OFA). The team has not played any official match so far.

Background[edit]

The national federation became a FIFA affiliate in 1980.[1] The development of women's football in the Middle East and central Asia dates back only about ten years.[2]

Team[edit]

In 1985, almost no country in the world had a women's national football team[3] and the team has yet to play in a FIFA recognised match.[4] The team has therefore never been ranked by FIFA.[5]

The country's kit colours are red and white shirts, red shorts, and red socks.[1]

Other national teams[edit]

Baroucher[edit]

In 2006, a team representing the country, Baroucher, played in the Women's Sevens Tournament in Abu Dhabi.

On 24 February, they lost 0–3 to Iraq. On 25 February, they lost to Syria 0–9. In group play, they had a total of 3 goals for and 20 against.[6][7]

In 2006, Oman hosted and played in a 5-a-side women's championship. Other countries participating in the tournament included Pakistan, Bahrain, Syria, Palestine, United Arab Emirates, Lebanon, Afghanistan.[8]
