The China women's national volleyball team (Chinese: 中国女排) represents the People's Republic of China in international volleyball competitions and friendly matches. They are one of the leading squads in women's international volleyball, having won the World Cup four times (1981, 1985, 2003 and 2015), World Championship twice (1982, 1986) and Olympic Game titles three times (1984, 2004 and 2016).
China took five consecutive World titles in the 1980s. Although it experienced an unstable development in the 1990s, the team won the World Cup title in 2003 and 2015, also captured the gold medal in the 2004 Summer Olympics and 2016 Summer Olympics.
Culturally, women's volleyball fielded the first ever Chinese team to be successful on a global scale, and was of great importance in the early 1980s, when the team was largely followed in China.
