In 1985, almost no country in the world had a women's national football team.[2]
In 2005, the country was one of seven teams that included Brunei, Thailand, Indonesia, East Timor, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Burma and Singapore, that were expected to field a women's football team to compete at the Southeast Asian Games in Marikina in December.[3]
In March 2012, the team was not ranked in the world by FIFA.[4]
The FIFA trigramme is TLS.[5]
The first match ever recorded by East Timor was against Myanmar. The game was held in Mandalay on 27 July 2016 and East Timor lost 0–17.
In 2016, East Timor participated in their first AFF Women's Championship, held in Myanmar between 26 July and 4 August 2016. The squad lost all their matches, being eliminated from the competition.
On 15 August 2019, East Timor won their first international match against Singapore with a score of 2–1.[6] [7] Luselia made history as the first player to score a goal for East Timor, she scored against Singapore in the 59th minute which gave East Timor a 1–0 lead over Singapore in the first match of East Timor in the 2019 AFF Women's Championship.
