About Canada Women’s National Football Team

The team rose to international prominence at the 2003 FIFA Women’s World Cup, losing in the bronze medal match to the United States. Canada qualified for its first Olympic women’s soccer tournament in 2008, reaching the quarterfinals.

Canada’s most significant achievement has been winning the gold medal at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. The team is also a two-time winner of the CONCACAF Women’s Championship and a two-time Olympic bronze medalist.

A certain segment of Canadian women’s soccer fans is closely associated with the under-20 (under-19 prior to 2006) team, in part because Canada hosted the first FIFA U-19 Women’s World Championship in 2002, a tournament in which the team won silver in front of 47,784 fans at Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton, Alberta. Canada also hosted the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup, where they were knocked out in the quarterfinals by England. Canada set tournament and team records for attendance in the process, with 1,353,506 and 54,027 respectively.

Canada Women’s National Football Team History

The Canada women’s team played its first international match on July 7, 1986, a 2–0 loss to the United States. The team’s first major tournament was the 1995 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Sweden, where the team recorded a draw and two losses in the group stage and failed to advance. Their first major tournament success was the 2003 FIFA Women’s World Cup in the United States, where Canada finished in fourth place, the first time they had reached the semifinals of a major world tournament.

Canada hosted the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup for the first time, where it reached the quarterfinals. The Canadian team won the bronze medal at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, and their best finish at any major world tournament was their gold medal win at the 2020 Summer Olympics.

Captain Christine Sinclair has been called the “backbone” of the Canadian national team, winning her 250th cap in 2016, while she ranks first in the world for international goals scored by any player, male or female.

She was named Canada Soccer’s Women’s Player of the Year every year from 2004 to 2014, and has been nominated for FIFA Women’s World Player of the Year. Despite speculation to the contrary, she confirmed in 2016 that she plans to compete in the 2019 Women’s World Cup and the 2020 Olympics. She also added ahead of the 2016 Olympics that “the young players who come into this Olympic team They have brought energy and passion to our team and have raised the bar.”
