The Sint Maarten national football team is the football team of Sint Maarten, the Dutch half of Saint Martin island which was part of the former Netherlands Antilles and is controlled by the Sint Maarten Soccer Association. Sint Maarten is not a member of FIFA, and is therefore not eligible to enter the World Cup. However, the association plans to apply for FIFA membership in 2016.[2] In 2002, the Sint Maarten Soccer Association was given associate membership in CONCACAF and became full members at the XXVIII Ordinary Congress in April 2013.[1][3] They are also members of the Caribbean Football Union.[4]

Since its first match in 1992, the team has only played 21 official matches.[5] Only one match has been played since the year 2000, an unofficial 2-2 draw at home to Sint Eustatius on 20 August 2004.[6]

Gold Cup record

Sint Maarten never reached the CONCACAF Gold Cup, but played in the qualifications in for the 1993, 1996 and 1998 Gold Cups.
