The Botswana women's national football team is the women's national football team of Botswana and is controlled by the Botswana Football Association. They qualified for their maiden Africa Women Cup of Nations (AWCON) tournament held in Morocco in July 2022.[4]
Botswana played in the qualification for the 2002 African Championship but lost in their first game. After this, they also took part in the qualification for the 2008 African Championship where they played two matches and lost both to Namibia at the end of 2007. Botswana did not play again until the qualification for the 2010 Championship where they lost both matches, this time against Democratic Republic of the Congo. For these games, Botswana named an entirely U20 national team.[5] They have also played games since they were eliminated from qualification.
