The Chad women's national football team is the national women's football team of Chad and is overseen by the Chadian Football Federation.
History
A women's football programme was first organised in Chad in 1986. Although as of 2009, there was no women's domestic league or women's national team at any level in Chad.[2]
On 4 April 2019, the Chad women's national football team played their first international match against Algeria, for the 2020 CAF Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament.
Background and development
The development of women's football on the continent has been lacking a result of several factors, including limited access to education, poverty amongst women in the wider society, and fundamental inequality present in the society that occasions female human rights abuses.[3] Funding also in an impediment, with most funding for women's football in Africa coming from FIFA instead of the national football association.[4] If quality female footballers do develop, many leave the continent seeking greater opportunity in Northern Europe or the United States.[4]
With a FIFA trigramme of CHA,[5] Chad has limited female participation in football having only 1,010 registered female footballers in 2006.[6] Rights to broadcast the 2011 Women's World Cup in the country were bought by the African Union of Broadcasting.[7]
On 30 October 2025, Chad trashed Libya with a result of 16-0, which marked their biggest victory as to date.
