The Greece women's national rugby league team represents Greece in women's rugby league football. Founded in 2019 by the Greek Rugby League Association, the team played its first game in September 2019 in a friendly match against Turkey.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the politics surrounding the governance of rugby league in Greece the team did not play its first full (as opposed to a friendly) international match until September 2022, when they entered the Southern group of the 2022 Rugby League Women's European Championship B.[1] The first home international match took place at Gorytsa Park field, Aspropyrgos on 2 October 2022.[2]
In January 2023, a team of Australian-based players of Greek heritage played an international match in Sydney against the Philippines, under national coach Stuart McLennan.[3] [4]
