The women's football section of the Uruguayan Football Association started in 1996 and the first official competition of the national team took place in the 1998 South American Championship. Separately, there was a women's football team representing Uruguay at least as early as 1962, when they played an international game at Estadio Belvedere against Argentina.[2] The best performance to date in the South American Championship came in 2006 when Uruguay earned third place.[3]
