Domestic football

In 1988 professional football was established in Panama.[4] Gary Stempel is considered an influential figure in improving Panama football.[5][6][7]

In 2017, a separate women's league, the Liga de Fútbol Femenino, was established, with the aim to improve women's football in the country.[8]

National team

In the 2010s, the Panama men's national team experienced its greatest success, finishing as runners-up in the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup[1] and qualifying for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.[9][10]

Meanwhile, the Panama women's national team reached the qualifying play-offs for the FIFA Women's World Cup for the first time in 2019, although their dream was cut short after losing to Argentina. Panama would then repeat the feat by reaching the play-offs for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup, again with the aim to qualify for their first Women's World Cup.[11] They successfully achieved World Cup qualification for the first time following a win against Paraguay.
