Women's football in Belgium is recorded at least as early as 1926, when the Belgium women's national football team played an annual series of matches against France, from 1926 until 1932. These were organized with the FSFSF. Belgium's only win was in the 1927 match in Paris, 2–1.[1] The last game in this series was played in Brussels on 3 April 1932 and ended 0–0.[1]

National Competition

National Football Team

The Belgium women's national football team was founded and played their first match in the 1976. Since then, Belgium has never been to the FIFA Women's World Cup or the UEFA Women's Championship, although they qualified for the upcoming 2017 UEFA Women's Championship.[3]
