current stability and progression. They are decided by every international game a team has ever played since 1971 and are released four times a year - in March, June, September, and December. Recently, FIFA released the latest FIFA World Rankings for women, and to no one's surprise, the US women's national team took the highest spot. Read on to find out how other teams like Germany ranked and learn more about **FIFA Women's rankings**. On this page: 1.

[FAQ On FIFA Women's World Rankings](#faq-on-fifa-women-s-world-rankings) ## History Of FIFA Women's World Rankings (WWR) The FIFA women's world rankings date back to 16th July 2003, when FIFA first published its list of top women's national teams. However, the data used for placement stems from July 1970, when FIFA organized its first Women's World Cup match in Italy. After a successful contest, FIFA planned another World Cup tournament in 1971\. But unlike the previous one, this was unofficial. The contest took place in Mexico, and after a competitive match, Denmark won the finals beating Mexico 3-0. The triumph of the two Women's World Cup Tournaments saw multiple countries lift the ban on women's soccer, which saw more Women's teams compete at the international level. Therefore, when FIFA introduced Women's world rankings in July 2003 as a follow-on of the male counterparts, they had enough rating points to develop an accurate list. The first rankings had few countries, but today, the list contains 185 Women's national teams. ## FIFA Women Ranking Leaders Since the initialization of FIFA women's rankings, there has been a pattern despite the competitiveness of the women's national teams. For example, Germany and the United States have always dominated the top positions. Adding to the latest rankings, the United States women's national team has led for 14 years. Also, it is one of the women's national teams with the longest reign of seven years on the top spot. The longest tenure spanned from March 2008 to December 2014\. On the other hand, Germany has occupied the top two slots in all the rankings except for six. Only four teams have managed to displace Germany from the top two spots, namely Brazil, Sweden, England, and Norway. ## How Are FIFA Women's Rankings Calculated? The calculation used to come up with FIFA women's rankings involves multiple aspects. First, the organization collects data from 1971 to the recent year the [FIFA Women's World Cup](https://oddspedia.com/us/soccer/world/world-cup-women) tournament occurred. Also, FIFA ensures the ranks are implicitly weighted to accentuate or emphasize recent results. So far, the basic formula is {WWR,new = WWR,old + ( Actual - Predicted )}. The complete formula is: Raft = Rbef + K (Sact - Sexp) To effectively apply the formula, you must find the value of Sexp using the following simple computation: Sexp = 1 / (1 + 10-x/2) where X = (Rbef – Obef +/- H) / c For the formula to make sense, here is what everything stands for: * **Raft = The team rating after the match** * **Rbef = The team rating before the match** * **K = 15M, the weighted importance of the match** * **Sact = The actual result of the match** * **Sexp = The expected result of the match** * **H = The "home advantage" correction** * **C = A scaling factor** * **M = The "Match Importance Factor"** * **X = The scaled difference in rating points between the teams** * **Obef = The opposing team's rating before the match** During ranking, the mean points for all teams are 1300\. However, the top-ranking women's national teams like the US, Germany, and Sweden often gather as many as 2000 points. As you learn the formula, remember that FIFA women's rankings come with pros and cons, as shown below: **Pros** * Help display the state of the Women's FIFA World Cup. * Highlight the positions of different teams. * Popularize Women's FIFA World Cup. **Cons** * Some teams avoid hosting the tournament to end up ranking high. ## Ranking Schedule - When Are Rankings Published? Women's international teams' rankings by FIFA occur four times yearly. Usually, the list comes out in March, June, September, and December. However, the latest rankings for 2022 are scheduled for March, June, August, October, and December.
