An Australian representative side participated in the 1975 AFC Women's Championship. Initially, these games were not recognised as official Australian international fixtures. The participants were the NSW State Team that the organisers had labelled as Australia.[1] Further to this, matches were only 60 minutes in length.[2] The team was officially recognised in May 2023, with all 16 members of the squad officially awarded caps.[3]
