Malaysia achieved 5th place in the 2007 Women's Hockey Asia Cup. The team won a bronze medal in the 1982 Asian Games and came 4th in 1986.

History

In 2010, the women's national team is invited to play in Malaysia Junior Hockey League as preparation match before the World Cup qualifier.[3][4]

The following season, the women's national team joined with Bandar Penawar Sports School to enter as a team in Division 2 of MHJL.

The women's national hockey team created a world record with their 36–0 thrashing over Cambodia during a group match in 2013 Southeast Asian Games, Yangon. It is a new world record for the highest score in an international match, last held by Argentina after they defeated Peru 26–0 at the South American Women's Championships in Santiago, Chile, in 2003.[5]
