History

Established in 2019, the team played two friendlies against their Lebanese counterparts before participating in the inaugural 2019 GCC Women's Games in Kuwait.[1] After a challenging start with a loss to Bahrain 11–2, Saudi Arabia staged an impressive comeback against Kuwait, overcoming a 3–1 deficit at half-time to secure a 4–3 victory. Although they faced a loss on the final day against the UAE, it resulted in a historic bronze medal for the team.[2]

In April 2022, it was announced that Saudi Arabia would be the host nation for its inaugural major women's futsal tournament, the 2022 WAFF Women's Futsal Championship.[3] For their debut appearance, the national team was drawn with Kuwait and debutante Oman.[4] In a historic finish the team finished as runners-up, losing to Iraq 2–4 in the final.[5]
