The Zimbabwe Women's National Football Team is the national women's football team of Zimbabwe and is overseen by the Zimbabwe Football Association (ZIFA). As of August 2023, they are ranked 125th internationally.[1] They have never qualified for the World Cup.
In 1991, the team withdrew from the tournament before playing a match. Their first competitive international match was played in the 2000 African Women's Championship, when they against Uganda 2–2 on 11 November 2000.
Zimbabwe were slated to appear at the 1991 African Women's Championship, but withdrew before their first round match with Zambia.[2] In June 1997 the team played South Africa at FNB Stadium in a curtain raiser to the men's Nelson Mandela Challenge.[3] [4] In 2003 the team's star player Yesmore Mutero publicly accused the national coach Shacky Tauro of infecting her with HIV during extramarital sex. Tauro denied the claims but left his job right after. Mutero died in 2004, followed by Tauro in 2009.[5]
In the COSAFA Women's Championship they finished second in 2002 and fourth in 2006. In 2011 they were crowned champions.[6] In 2016 the team qualified for the Africa Women Cup of Nations. They also qualified for the 2016 Olympic football tournament, and finished last in their group (containing Canada, Germany, and Australia) after losing 6–1 to Germany, 3–1 to Canada and 6–1 to Australia.
