History


Founded in 1970 by fans of Southampton F.C. men's team, Southampton Women's FC became the first WFA Cup (Women's FA Cup) winners in 1971, winning the Final against Stewarton Thistle.

Southampton reached every WFA Cup Final in the competition's first nine seasons. They won the first three and won again in 1975, 1976, 1978, 1979 and 1981, with defeats in 1974 and 1977. Southampton is the city's most successful women's football club. They are eight-time winners of the Women's FA Cup, second only to Arsenal with 14 titles to their name.[1]

Southampton returned to form, with the first team winning the Southern Region Women's Football League and League Cup[2][3] in 2016–17. They gained promotion to the 4th-tier FA Women's Premier League (now National League), whilst the Reserves were unbeaten in the Hampshire County Women's League and won promotion to the Southern Region Women's Football League.
