Women's World Cup
The Women's World Cup is a female counterpart of the NationStates World Cup of football, though it remains an entirely independent competition with no formal links to either the World Cup or the World Cup Committee. Women have appeared for World Cup teams for many years, but it took until after World Cup 27 before enough money and interest was raised to see an all-female World Cup hosted - in Chicanada, who have also had a professional women's league, the WomensLiga
The Women's world Cup was discontinued after the 11th edition, due to lack of interest amongst the nations, lack of funding from the World Cup Committee and the inclusion of more women into national teams around the world.

Hosts Chicanada took third place. 28 teams competed for the 16 spots in the finals.

Hosted by: Liverpool England
Liverpool England winners of the first Women's World Cup will be the hosts of the Women's World Cup 3 tournement. 38 teams vied for the 3rd Cup and during qualifying a few shocks occurred as favourites such as Milchama, New Montreal States, Starblaydia, and Sarzonia failed to qualify for the Cup. New teams like Los Mexico and Carvalo qualified as did long-shots such as Khenas and San Haven.
In the group stages, the newer teams crumbled and the old guard stood firm. All four of the quarter-final matches were decided by one goal with Haraki being the upset winner over Wentland. But Haraki's miracle run ended with a 5-2 loss to the defending champs in the semis. In the other semifinal, Chicanada tried and failed for the 3rd straight time to reach the final as a rematch of the Women's World Cup 2 final (Yafor 2 vs. Jeruselem) came about. This time, Jeruselem took care of business early and won their 2nd straight title 6-2.

By a 4-1 vote, the co-hosting bid by Rorysville and Marceau State beat out the bid from Swilatia. There are 34 teams that signed up for competition.
The 2-time defending champions, Jeruselem once again sailed into the knock-out stages as heavy favourites, but a shocking loss to Qazox in the semis, prevented the three-peat. Qazox went on to win its first title by defeating Wentland on penalties 4-3. Jeruselem did recover and finished third, once again defeating Yafor 2 in the third place game.
Surprisingly, Marceau State, while one of the stronger teams in qualifying, failed to advance to the knock-out stage, making them the 1st host/co-host not to do so.

Hosted by:Noremark/Rorysville
The Seventh Edition of the Women's World Cup will be hosted by Noremark. Among the early favourites to win are: Qazox, Jeruselem, Rorysville, Yafor 2, Liverpool England and Wentland. Due to Noremark seemingly not interested in hosting after the 1st day of matches, Rorysville took over the hosting duties for the remainder of the tourney. Defending champion Qazox and favourite Jeruselm each failed to make the final, the 1st time since Women's World Cup 1 that neither side has been in the final. Rorysville became the 1st host to not only make the final, but to win the Cup.

Women's World Cup IX

Hosted by:Every Citizen is a Man
After some controversy surrounding the Sativaville hosting bid, Every Citizen is a Man was awarded the hosting duties for the Cup. This could cause some contention as ECIAM had sued previously to enter the Cup. Can a country full of men host a tournament for women?? The Hosts surprisingly won their group and made the final, but lost to Qazox in the 3rd meeting of the two sides. The first of the two matches between the two teams saw a record number of yellow cards and the second was called due to fan violence. Defending Champs Wentland lost in the semis to ECIAM, and promptly withdrew from the tourney. Jeruselem, who lost to Qazox in the other semifinal, declined the forfeit of the 3rd place match, so both teams will share 3rd (though officially Jeruselem will be marked as the 3rd place team)
