Overview

The Belizean team debut on 25 November 2001 in the 2001 Central American Games with Guatemala, which resulted in a crushing 12–0 defeat, two days later played against El Salvador, against which they also lost, 6–0.

At the age of 11, Belize international Khalydia Velasquez became the youngest player to score in an official FIFA sanctioned international tournament.[2][3]

The team had never won or tied and game until the 2022 CONCACAF W Championships where the team tied their first game on April 6, 2022, and won their first game on April 12, 2022.
