In the absence of major women's futsal competitions and with limited national teams in the continent, Hungary emerged as one of the earliest European nations to establish a women's futsal team in 2008. On 15 October 2008, Hungary made its international debut by defeating the Czech Republic 4–2 in a friendly match held in Ózd.[2][3]
From their inception until 2018, the team primarily took part in regional tournaments, competing six times in Russia's Victory Day Women's Cup and winning the Ostrava Three Nations Tournaments in both 2014 and 2015.[4]
In 2018, following UEFA's establishment of the UEFA Women's Futsal Championship, Hungary entered the qualifying tournament.[5] They were placed in Group 3, hosted by Ukraine, who edged them out for the final spot on goal difference after both teams finished with 7 points.[6] In the second edition in 2022, Hungary was in a group with Russia, Belarus, and the Netherlands. Although they initially did not qualify after two wins and one loss, they advanced to their first-ever UEFA Women's Futsal Euro after Russia's suspension.[7] In the finals, they lost to Portugal in the semifinals and to Ukraine in the third-place playoff, finishing in fourth place. After qualifying for the third edition, which they hosted, the team had a similar performance, losing in both the semifinals and the third-place match, this time suffering a 12–0 defeat to Portugal, marking their biggest loss in history.[8]
