The team is controlled by the Latvian Ice Hockey Federation (Latvian: Latvijas Hokeja Federācija), a member of the International Ice Hockey Federation. The team was initially scheduled to debut at the 2021 IIHF World Women's U18 Championship; however, due to the cancellation of the event, it instead made its debut in 2022,[1] where it finished fifth in Division II.[1] Their best finish to date was in 2023, where they took second place in Division II – Group A, one place short of promotion to Division I.[2]
