The Iran women's national football team represents Iran in international women's football, and is controlled by the Iran Football Federation (IFF). The IFF official in charge of women's football is Leila Soufizadeh.

History

The first Iranian women's national team was established by Taj Tehran Football Club.[2][3][4] The Iranian women's national team featured freely without the hijab before the Iranian Revolution, with a women's Perspolis FC team dating back to 1976.[5][6] Refounded in 2005, the team reached second place at the 2005 West Asian Football Federation Women's Championship in Amman, Jordan held in September and October 2005.

In May 2006, the women's team hosted their first foreign visitors when a club from Berlin, Germany called BSV Al-Dersimspor played out a 2–2 draw in Ararat Stadium, Tehran.

The team won second place again at the 2007 and 2011 West Asian Football Federation Women's Championship.[7]

Banned from international competition

Iran were briefly banned by FIFA from international competition in 2011 for wearing hijabs.[8][9]

On 9 November 2018 Fatma Samoura, Secretary General of International Federation of Football Association FIFA said she would ask Iranian government to end ban on women’s entry to sport stadiums.[10]
