In July 2019, Arema FC announced their commitment to take part in the inaugural season of Liga 1 Putri, a women's football competition in Indonesia and formed a women's football team. Arema Football Club Putri were officially introduced on 2 October 2019 at the Kanjuruhan Stadium during the Arema match against PSM Makassar in the competition Liga 1.[3] Alief Syahrizal was appointed as the club's first head coach,[4] with their inaugural 24-player squad announced on the same day.

The nickname for Arema FC Putri is Ongis Kodew (Lionesses). Ongis is a language from Malang which means singo (lion in Javanese). Since a long time ago the lion was an icon of the city of Malang.
