The Netherlands women's national football team ({{langx|nl|Nederlands vrouwenvoetbalelftal}}) represents the Netherlands in international women's football, and is directed by the Royal Dutch Football Association (KNVB), which is a member of UEFA and FIFA.

In 1971, the team played the first women's international football match recognized by FIFA against France.{{Cite web |date=5 June 2015 |title=The women's football World Cup is about to start. Here's the lowdown on the Oranje Lionesses – DutchNews.nl |url=http://www.dutchnews.nl/features/2015/06/11-things-you-should-know-about-womens-football-in-the-netherlands/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190705033732/https://www.dutchnews.nl/features/2015/06/11-things-you-should-know-about-womens-football-in-the-netherlands/ |archive-date=5 July 2019 |access-date=3 September 2015}} They played at the final tournament of the UEFA Women's Championship four times and were champions in 2017 as hosts. They qualified for the World Cup three times, reaching the final of the 2019 edition of the World Cup, losing 2–0 against the United States. The result of the 2019 World Cup meant that the Netherlands team qualified for 2020 Olympics where they lost in the quarter-finals.

The Netherlands was one of numerous countries where women's football was banned for a long time, and received scepticism afterwards. The team grew in popularity during and after their surprise victory on home soil at the 2017 Euro's.

The nicknames for the team are Oranje (Orange) and Leeuwinnen (Lionesses). The Dutch women's team logo features a lioness making it different from the men's team logo, which sports a male lion. The team famously plays in bright orange, the historic national colour of the Netherlands. Andries Jonker has been head coach since the conclusion of the UEFA Women's Euro 2022.

History

On 17 April 1971, the Dutch team played the first women's international football match recognized by FIFA against France. The match took place in Hazebrouck, France and resulted in a 4–0 defeat for the Netherlands, Jocelyne Ratignier and Marie-Claire Caron-Harant scoring.{{Cite web |title=Nederlands Vrouwenelftal. htstorie. |url=https://www.onsoranje.nl/teams/207834/historie |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210109170751/https://www.onsoranje.nl/teams/207834/historie |archive-date=9 January 2021 |access-date=8 April 2018 |publisher=OnsOranje |language=nl}}

In 1980s and 1990s, the team failed to qualify for the final tournaments of UEFA's European Championship and later also for the FIFA's World Championship. The Royal Dutch Football Association began major investments into women's football in the 2000s, culminating in the establishment of the Women's Eredivisie in 2007 (which was merged with the Belgian league in 2012).{{Cite news |last=Lewis |first=Aimee |date=6 July 2019 |title=USA vs. Netherlands: Dutch World Cup success was decades in the making |url=https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/06/football/netherlands-usa-womens-world-cup-final-spt-intl/index.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190706181722/https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/06/football/netherlands-usa-womens-world-cup-final-spt-intl/index.html |archive-date=6 July 2019 |access-date=6 July 2019 |publisher=CNN}}{{Cite news |last=Baxter |first=Kevin |date=4 July 2019 |title=Netherlands looks to add Women's World Cup title to European championship |url=https://www.latimes.com/sports/soccer/la-sp-usa-netherlands-world-cup-final-20190704-story.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190706055839/https://www.latimes.com/sports/soccer/la-sp-usa-netherlands-world-cup-final-20190704-story.html |archive-date=6 July 2019 |access-date=6 July 2019 |work=Los Angeles Times}} This resulted in the team qualifying for a major tournament for the first time at the UEFA Women's Euro 2009. They finished in third place, together with Norway, behind second placed England and winners Germany (first place).{{Cite web |title=UEFA Women's EURO 2009 - History - – UEFA.com |url=https://www.uefa.com/womenseuro/history/teams/500095--netherlands/ |url-status=deviated |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150728032019/http://www.uefa.com/womenseuro/season=2009/teams/team=500095/history/index.html |archive-date=28 July 2015 |access-date=3 September 2015 |website=UEFA}} The team again qualified for the UEFA Women's Euro 2013, but did not advance after the group stage.{{Cite web |title=UEFA Women's Euro history.

In 2017, the Netherlands won their first major women's trophy, ending Germany's seemingly unbeatable reign over the UEFA Women's Championship and surprising friend and foe alike by winning the tournament on home soil, beating Denmark 4–2 in the final.{{Cite web |title=NETHERLANDS VS.

In 2018, the Netherlands finished second in their UEFA Qualifying Group behind Norway. Therefore, they had to go through the UEFA play-off in order to qualify for the 2019 World Cup. Switzerland, Belgium and Denmark were the other teams in the play-off.{{Cite web |title=Women's World Cup play-off draw on Friday |url=https://www.uefa.com/womensworldcup/season=2019/draws/round=2000872/index.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180620072236/http://www.uefa.com/womensworldcup/season=2019/draws/round=2000872/index.html |archive-date=20 June 2018 |access-date=6 September 2018}} The Netherlands beat Denmark 4–1 on aggregate in the play-off semi-finals and repeated that result against Switzerland over two legs in the play-off final to qualify.{{Cite web |date=13 November 2018 |title=Netherlands win World Cup play-offs |url=https://www.uefa.com/womensworldcup/news/024b-0e17734cbdfb-48f6901be63b-1000--netherlands-win-world-cup-play-offs/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181109235923/https://www.uefa.com/womensworldcup/news/newsid=2569545.html |archive-date=9 November 2018 |access-date=13 November 2018}} In the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, the Netherlands had another strong performance, reaching the final before losing 2–0 to the United States.

They qualified for the 2020 Summer Olympics thanks to their position at the 2019 World Cup where they finished among the 3 best European teams. The Netherlands passed the 1st round at their first Olympic participation, finishing at the top of their group thanks to 2 large victories (10–3 against Zambia and 8–2 against China) and a draw (3–3 against Brazil), displaying an attractive offensive game but a certain defensive frailty (8 goals conceded in the group stages). However, their journey ended in the quarter-finals against the United States, an opponent who had already played the role of tormentor of the Oranje in the final of the French World Cup two years earlier, losing in penalty kicks (2–2, 2 pts to 4). The Dutch will have regrets, Lieke Martens having missed a decisive penalty in the 81st minute of the game when the score was tied 2–2.

Coach Sarina Wiegman left the team after the Olympics and was replaced by Englishman Mark Parsons. The Netherlands reached UEFA Women's Euro 2022 in England with a perfect record of ten victories in qualification. In England, the Netherlands passed the group stage thanks to two victories over Switzerland and Portugal. A draw against Sweden however meant the team had to face France in the quarterfinals. Although they only lost in extra time, they were thoroughly outplayed and it was decided to part ways with Parsons.

Andries Jonker took over coaching responsibilities and was immediately faced with a must-win game against Iceland to avoid the play-offs for the 2023 World Cup. In a tense game, Esmee Brugts scored the desperately needed goal only in stoppage time and the Netherlands qualified for their third World Cup.

At the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, Netherlands were in Group E along with USA, Portugal and Vietnam.{{Cite web |date=1 August 2023 |title=FIFA Women's World Cup 2023: All fixtures, results, goalscorers, and group standings – complete list FIFA Women's World Cup 2023: All fixtures, results, goalscorers, and group standings – complete list |url=https://olympics.com/en/news/fifa-women-world-cup-2023-results-scores-standings-points-table |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230808105239/https://olympics.com/en/news/fifa-women-world-cup-2023-results-scores-standings-points-table |archive-date=8 August 2023 |access-date=1 August 2023 |website=Olympics}} It started with a 1–0 win over Portugal, followed this with a 1–1 draw with USA and finished with a 7–0 victory over Vietnam to top the group.

In April 2025, the KNVB announced that Arjan Veurink will succeed Jonker as coach after the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 tournament.{{Cite web |date=15 April 2025 |title=Arjan Veurink na het EK bondscoach Nederlands elftal vrouwen |url=https://www.onsoranje.nl/nieuws/nederlands-elftal-vrouwen/82010/arjan-veurink-na-het-ek-bondscoach-nederlands-elftal-vrouwen |access-date=2025-05-13 |website=Ons Oranje |language=nl}}{{Cite news |last=Garry |first=Tom |date=2025-04-15 |title=Wiegman's Lionesses No 2 Veurink to take Netherlands job after Euro 2025 |url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/apr/15/sarina-wiegman-lionesses-no-2-arjan-veurink-netherlands-coach-after-euro-2025 |access-date=2025-05-13 |work=The Guardian |language=en-GB |issn=0261-3077}}

=Olympic Games=

Since the inception of women's Olympic football, UEFA has designated the World Cup as its qualifying tournament for the succeeding Olympic tournament. Because the Netherlands failed to qualify to the World Cup until 2015, the Netherlands women automatically failed to qualify for the Olympics up to 2012. In 2015 Netherlands made it to their first World Cup. Their round of 16 exit was good enough for a post World Cup mini tournament to decide UEFA's last spot at the Olympics. Sweden won that tournament and the Netherlands were eliminated. In 2019 the Netherlands reached the World Cup final and qualified for the Olympics for the first time.

The Dutch failed to qualify for the final tournament of the UEFA Women's Championship from 1984 to 2005. In 2009, the Netherlands women's team qualified and reached third place.[https://www.uefa.com/womenseuro/history/teams/500095--netherlands/ UEFA Women's EURO 2009], UEFA. Retrieved 1 July 2014. In 2013, they qualified again, but did not advance beyond the group stage.[http://www.uefa.com/womenseuro/season=2013/standings/round=2000175/group=2001147/index.html Group B] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170915100154/http://www.uefa.com/womenseuro/season=2013/standings/round=2000175/group=2001147/index.html |date=15 September 2017 }}, UEFA. Retrieved 1 July 2014. The Dutch women booked a major victory at the 2017 tournament: after a 4–2 victory over Denmark in the final they were the new European champion.
