Croatia women's national under-17 football team
National association football team
The Croatia women's national under-17 football team represents Croatia in international women's football matches for players aged 17 or under. It is governed by the Croatian Football Federation, the governing body for football in Croatia. It is a member of UEFA in Europe and FIFA in global competitions. The team's colours reference two national symbols: the Croatian checkerboard and the country's tricolour. They are colloquially referred to as the Lavice ('Lionesses'). So far, the Lavice have not qualified for UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship, and consequently for FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, as the European Championship serves as the qualifier for the World Cup.
