History

New Zealand played their first game on 6 December 2013 against Australia in Dunedin, tying 2–2.[1] The game was part of a four-game series being held in Dunedin between two teams.[1] New Zealand went on to win the remaining three games of the series, which included their largest recorded international win of 5–1 in the final game.[1] On 30 May and 1 June 2014, New Zealand played two games against the Auckland under-16 representative team, losing both games 9–1 and 4–0 respectively.[1] In December 2014, New Zealand travelled to Australia to compete in a five-game series against Australia at the Medibank Icehouse in Melbourne.[2] The team lost the series two games to three and also recorded their largest international loss in game four, losing 8–1 to Australia.[2]

In March 2017, New Zealand participated at the 2017 IIHF Women's Challenge Cup of Asia. This was the first time New Zealand had sent a team to this tournament. The team was undefeated throughout the tournament and gained their biggest win so far of 16–1 against the United Arab Emirates. The team were also by far the youngest team to compete with an average age of 16 years. They defeated the women's (senior) national teams of Asia including Thailand, Singapore, India, Philippines, Malaysia, and the United Arab Emirates.
