History

Fiji participated one time so far in the OFC U-17 Women's Championship. This was in 2016 and it was the third time that the tournament was held. This tournament was immediately a big success for Fiji as they managed to reach a third spot with nine teams participating. They managed to get a 3–0 win against the Cook Islands and a 1–1 draw against Papua New Guinea. These results sent them to the semi-final where they lost by 11 goals to nil against New Zealand. In the Third place match they managed to get a 3–2 victory against New Caledonia. Aliza Hussein managed to score the first goal ever for Fiji against the Cook Islands. However, Cema Nassau is the top goal scorer with five goals.
