In their first qualifiers the following year, the team were comfortably beaten in all of their matches as they finished bottom of their four-team group having scored no goals and conceded 49. Later in the year, the team competed in the second Emerging Nations Cup, where they again finished fourth following two defeats.

The 2016 Benacia Cup qualification rounds saw the team lose all eight of their matches as they finished bottom of their five-team group with no points to their name.
