The Malawi women's national football team, nicknamed "the Scorchers", represents Malawi in international women's association football. Established in the early 2000s, and is controlled by the Football Association of Malawi (FAM), the team has qualified for the Women's Africa Cup of Nations for the first time in 2026 but has yet to appear at the FIFA Women's World Cup. Its most notable achievement is winning the 2023 COSAFA Women's Championship.
