UEFA Women's Championship

Unofficial women's European tournaments for national teams were held in Italy in 1969 and 1979 and won by Italy
and Denmark, but there was no formal international tournament until 1982 when the first UEFA European Competition
 For Representative Women's Teams was launched. The 1984 Finals was won by Sweden.
This competition name was succeeded by the UEFA Women's Championship and today, is commonly referred to as
the Women's Euro. Norway won, in the 1987 Finals. Since then, the UEFA Women's Championship has been dominated
by Germany, which has won seven out of eight events, interrupted only by Norway in 1993. Germany's 2009 win was
their fifth in a row.
