Italy have participated 13 times at UEFA Women's Championship.

While the men's senior team have won once the UEFA European Championship, the women's team is yet to win a single edition.[1] Italy have participated in the inaugural European Championship in 1984, where they were eliminated in the semi-finals against Sweden. Italy have failed the qualification once, in 1995.[2]

Italy lost two finals: in 1993 against Norway[3] and in 1997 against Germany.[4] It is the best Italy's record.[5]
