Despite women's rugby league first being played in Australia in 1921, the first official game between Queensland and New South Wales was not held until 1999. The two teams met at [[Brisbane]]'s [[Queensland Sport and Athletics Centre|ANZ Stadium]] with Queensland winning 16–6.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nrl.com/news/2018/06/15/history-in-the-making-as-first-ever-womens-origin-hits-bear-park/|title=Why a big crowd is crucial to history-making women's Origin clash|date=15 June 2018|website=NRL}}</ref>

 

 

Before coming under the State of Origin banner in 2018, the sides were not known as the 'Blues' and 'Maroons', with the Queensland side being known as the '[[Brolgas]]'.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.qrl.com.au/news/2020/02/11/ballinger-calls-time-on-her-queensland-career/|title=Ballinger calls time on her Queensland career|date=11 February 2020|website=QRL}}</ref> In 2005, the teams began playing for the Nellie Doherty Cup. Nellie Doherty was a pioneer of the women's game in Australia, helping to launch the sport in 1921.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nrl.com/womens/origin/|title=Women's State of Origin|website=NRL}}</ref>

In 2019, the eligibility rules were revised to be more inline with the men's [[State of Origin series|State of Origin]] rules.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nrl.com/news/2020/10/07/caslick-pelite-get-green-light-to-play-for-maroons-in-origin/|title=Caslick, Pelite get green light to play for Maroons in Origin|date=7 October 2020|website=NRL}}</ref> The residency rule was removed, which saw [[Kiwi Ferns|New Zealand]] representatives [[Maitua Feterika]] (Queensland) and [[Nita Maynard]] (New South Wales) ruled ineligible.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.qrl.com.au/news/2019/04/18/new-eligibility-rules-for-womens-state-of-origin/|title=New eligibility rules for Women's State of Origin|date=18 April 2019|website=QRL}}</ref> Queensland {{rlp|lk}} [[Rona Peters]], who had previously represented New Zealand, was also originally ruled ineligible. This was later overturned and she was given special dispensation, as she had retired from international rugby league in 2015, before she first represented Queensland in 2016.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nrl.com/news/2019/06/06/four-debutantes-named-for-maroons-womens-origin/|title=Four debutantes named for Maroons women's Origin|date=6 June 2019|website=NRL}}</ref>
