History

In 1985, almost no country in the world had a women's national football team,[1] including Montserrat.[2] Between 1985 and April 2012, the team did not play in a single FIFA recognised match.[2] They were supposed to compete in the 2002 Caribbean Qualifying for the CONCACAF Women's Gold Cup. On 30 June, they should have played against the United States Virgin Islands but they withdrew from the tournament.[3] Likewise, they were supposed to compete in the Women's Caribbean Cup 2006. They were supposed to have played St. Kitts and Nevis but withdrew from the tournament.[4] In March 2012, the team was not ranked in the world by FIFA.[5]
