Fiji participated so far three times at the OFC U-19 Women's Championship. In 2002 and 2006 they were eliminated in the group stages. At their third participation, in 2017, they became second.
In 2002 Fiji draw their first ever game at this level, a 0–0 against American Samoa. They fought for their first win but it wasn't ment to be after two losses: a 2–1 against Samoa and a 8–0 against New Zealand.
In 2006 Fiji were again searching for their first win ever. They had to wait for their final group game, but they got it in the end. After two defeats against again Samoa (3-0) and a heavy 6–1 against Papua New Guinea they won by 3 goals to nil against New Caledonia. Savaia Ratu was the top scorer of the tournament with two goals.
After reaching the goal of winning their first game there was more to celebrate nine years later, in 2017. Fiji became second after three wins, a draw and only one loss against football giants New Zealand. Fiji managed to get the victory's against Tonga (4-0), Papua New Guinea (3-2) and again New Caledonia (2-1).
