Yemen women's national football team → Women's football in Yemen – While the AfD from five years ago closed as keep, I think the focus of this article should be women's football overall in Yemen. I have found no secondary sources to indicate that this "team" has ever played a match (page 216 of this PDF lists no matches from 2002 to 2006, and the team has never appeared in the FIFA Women's World Rankings). While this FIFA PDF from 2009 indicated there was a women's "A" team, I could not find any secondary sources to corroborate this. It's also worth noting the data would have been reported by the Yemeni FA to FIFA, so it is not exactly a reliable indicator of whether a team exists. Maybe there is a training system/youth development, but I don't think that is enough to prove the existence of an official women's national team; that requires playing a match. S.A.
