The Yugoslavia women's national under-18 and under-19 basketball team was the women's basketball side that represented Kingdom of Yugoslavia and Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia from 1965 until 1992 in the international under-18 and under-19 basketball matches, controlled by the Basketball Federation of Yugoslavia (KSJ).

The team's first major tournament appearance was at the 1965 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship for Women, hosted by Bulgaria, in which it finished runners-up, losing to Soviet Union.

The team disappeared during the breakup of Yugoslavia in the early 1990s and its last major tournament appearance was at the 1988 FIBA Europe Under-18 Championship for Women in Bulgaria, where they finished as third. Direct successor of SFRJ team is FR Yugoslavian women's national under-18 and under-19 team.
