Shiva Amini () is an Iranian women's futsal player formerly playing for Iran national team and former Iranian Women's Futsal Premier League club, Matin Varamin, based in Varamin, a city 56 kms south-east of Tehran. She emigrated from Iran in 2017 and currently lives in Switzerland. Since 2009, she was no longer included in the national team because she had published pictures of herself without hijab during one of her foreign trips and had played futsal with boys. Finally, the Iranian Islamic Republic regime's harassment forced her to leave Iran and seek asylum in Switzerland. Today, she is a youth and children's futsal coach in Switzerland.از مینو خالقی تا شیوا امینی، حذف به خاطر «حجاب» in Radio Farda websiteIranian women team wins futsal title in Tehran Times websiteThe truth about the Iranian footballer 'banned for not wearing a hijab' in France 24 websiteFemale Futsal Player Applies for Swiss Asylum After Removing Hijab in kayhanlife.comشیوا امینی؛ فوتسالیستی که در ایران آزارها دید و در سوییس طرحی نو درانداخت in iranwire.comماجرای حذف شیوا امینی از تیم ملی فوتسال زنان ایران in Deutsche Welle websiteشیوا امینی درخواست پناهندگی داد in mizan.newsFormer member of Iranian women's football team 'banned from sport' after being photographed without veil in The Independent website in irankargar.comشیوا امینی بازیکن سابق تیم ملی فوتسال:«برخی از رسانه‌ها از خودشان درآوردند که اکنون عضو تیم ملی یا باشگاهی هستم» in rfi.frIranian women's futsal team qualifies for final stage of West Asian Clubs tournament in payvand.com
