Women's football in Pakistan officially began with the establishment of the first women club Diya WFC in 2002. Despite facing challenges, including societal norms and limited resources, women's football has garnered support and recognition.

One the barriers of the sport growing is it coached by men so the Pakistan FA are trying to get more women involved in coaching and refereeing.
