Introduction:
Due to the growing popularity of women’s football and in view of the increasing information on the importance of the use of stretching exercises by athletes in various sports, including football, it is reasonable to review the data on the importance of stretching in the training process and the prevention of musculoskeletal injuries in women’s football.

Aim:
This systematic review investigates the quality of scientific evidence on the effect of stretching on motor skills and the impact of stretching on reducing the number of injuries in female football players.

Material and Methods:
PubMed and Web of Science databases were searched using keywords such as football, soccer, female, woman, stretching, stretch, injuries, injury, performance, strength, speed, coordination, flexibility, endurance, and agility. Methodological quality was assessed using the PEDro scale and Quality Assessment Tool for Observational Cohort and Cross-Sectional Studies.

Results:
Among 172 records, only six articles met the criteria and were included in the systematic review.

Conclusions:
While stretching has been shown to have positive effects on motor skills, particularly balance and strength, its impact on injury prevention remains uncertain. Stretching should be considered as one element within a comprehensive training program. More research is needed to gain a better understanding of the role of stretching in women’s football and its impact on injury prevention.
