The Great Britain women's national field hockey team represents Great Britain in international field hockey tournaments such as the Summer Olympics.

In most other competitions, including the Women's Hockey World Cup, the Commonwealth Games and some editions of the Hockey Champions Trophy, the three home nations compete in their own right: England and Scotland and Wales.[2][3]

The team has won gold once and bronze twice at the Summer Olympics, and silver once in the Champions Trophy.
