The Gibraltar women's national futsal team represents Gibraltar in international futsal competitions and is controlled by the Gibraltar Football Association, the governing body for football in Gibraltar.

History

Gibraltar held its first set of international matches against Northern Ireland on 6 and 7 April 2019 at the Tercentenary Sports Hall. They lost both matches; 0–3 and 2–3.[2][3]

Gibraltar's futsal team became the first ever women's national team of the Gibraltar Football Association to take part in an official competition when it hosted a group in the preliminary round of the UEFA Women's Futsal Euro 2022 in April 2021.[4][5] Kazakhstan withdrew from the group, leaving Belgium as Gibraltar's only opponent. Belgium advances after winning in penalties after drawing 3–3 with Gibraltar in the latter's first competitive UEFA match.[6]
