Knowing some of the history of LCWFC helps you appreciate the sense of community, spirit and family for which the Club are renowned for.

In May 2021, LCFC Women were promoted to the FA Women’s Super League.

The Club is highly ambitious and continues its drive to solidify its position in the WSL and securing its place for a fifth straight WSL season in 2025/26. LCFC Women’s management team, working together with the LCFC Board and staff, aims to deliver an ambitious and professional organisation.
