The Wales women's national football team represents Wales in international women's football. They have yet to qualify for the final stages of the World Cup or European Championships and are currently ranked 31st in the world[3] and 20th in Europe.[2] The team is run by the Football Association of Wales. Although most national football teams represent a sovereign state, as a member of the United Kingdom's Home Nations, Wales, which is a country, is permitted by FIFA statutes to maintain its own national side that competes in all major tournaments, with the exception of the Women's Olympic Football Tournament.
