The Senegalese national volleyball team is the selection of Senegalese female volleyball players that the Fédération Sénégalaise de Volley-Ball (FSVB) represents on an international level, for example in friendly matches against the national teams of other national associations, but also in international competitions. In 1961, the national association joined the world association Fédération Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB). In August 2012, the team was ranked 27th in the world .
