History
[edit ]Missing the inaugural edition of the Sudamericano de Futsal Femenino in 2005, Venezuela made their tournament debut in 2007.[2] They played their first match against hosts Ecuador, securing a 3–2 victory. The team advanced to the semi-finals in their first appearance but fell to Brazil. They ultimately settled for bronze after defeating Uruguay in the third-place playoff.[2]
Following the launch of the Women's Futsal World Tournament in 2010, Venezuela was invited to take part in the inaugural edition in Alcobendas, Spain, where they were eliminated in the group stage. Venezuela went on to participate in the next two editions of the tournament, finishing 7th and 9th, respectively.[3] [4]
In the 7th edition of the Copa América Femenina de Futsal in 2019, Venezuela failed to reach the semifinals for the first time in their history, after four previous appearances. They lost all their matches before securing a 9th-place finish with a victory over Chile.
After the inclusion of women's futsal in the 2022 South American Games, Venezuela participated in the inaugural edition, finishing fifth out of six teams. The team won only one match, defeating Chile.[5] [6]
At the 2023 ALBA Games, held in Caracas, the team faced Nicaragua and its B team in a three-team tournament, where they defeated Nicaragua 12–0.[7]
