TheBahamas national football team representsThe Bahamas in men's internationalfootball and is controlled by theBahamas Football Association. It has been a member ofFIFA since 1968, affiliated withCONCACAF since 1981 and regionally, it is also a member ofCFU.
The Bahamas played their first international matches in the1970 Central American and Caribbean Games, losing their debut 3–0 againstPuerto Rico, an 8–1 loss againstNetherlands Antilles and 5–0 toVenezuela. They did manage to get their first draw though, a 2–2 result againstDominican Republic.[3] The following year, Bahamas participated in the1971 Pan American Games, achieving their first victory overDominican Republic 4–2, but failing to exit the group stages. They returned to play in the1974 Central American and Caribbean Games, and managed a historic 1–0 victory againstPanama, but lost 3–0 toBermuda and 2–0 to theDominican Republic and was eliminated again in the first round.
Bahamas finished bottom of their group in the1982 Central American and Caribbean Games and in the1986 edition, they were given a bye into the quarterfinals due to a withdrawal, however Bahamas were beaten byCuba and eliminated. They also participated in the qualifying rounds for the1984 Olympic Games (eliminated by an amateurMexico team) and the1988 Olympics (beaten byGuyana). On 28 April 1987, the Bahamas experienced their worst defeat at the hands of the Mexican team, who crushed them 13–0 as part of the qualifying tournament for the1987 Pan American Games.
In the 1990s, the Bahamas withdrew from1998 World Cup qualifying, leavingSaint Kitts and Nevis to advance to the next round. Bahamas advanced past the preliminary round1999 Caribbean Cup, but failed to beatBermuda (0–6),Cuba (0–7) and theCayman Islands (1–4) and finished last in their group.
The 2000s saw theBaha Boyz enter three consecutive World Cup qualifiers;2002,2006 and2010 being eliminated byHaiti (aggregate score 13–0),Dominica (aggregate score 4–2) andJamaica (aggregate score 13–0), respectively. In the2007 Caribbean Cup they got through the first knockout round but finished in last position in the second qualifying round behindBarbados,Saint Vincent andBermuda.
In the2014 World Cup qualifiers, the Bahamas thrashed theTurks and Caicos Islands with an aggregate score of 10–0, advancing to the second phase however, the team withdrew from the competition as the renovations for theThomas Robinson Stadium were not completed and playing the fixtures at neutral venues would have been financially prohibitive.[4] In the2018 World Cup qualifying, they facedBermuda in the first round, losing 8–0 on aggregate. In the first round of2022 World Cup qualification, Bahamas failed to score a goal, finishing in last place, having conceded 15.
The following is a list of match results in the last 12 months, as well as any future matches that have been scheduled.
