About Leicester City Women

Leicester City Women were founded in 2004 and achieved four successive promotions in their first four seasons. The club won the Women's Championship in 2021 to earn WSL promotion. Purchased by King Power in 2020, the squad plays at the King Power Stadium. The 2025-26 season has been difficult with Leicester bottom of the standings, though the WSL expansion to 14 teams means no automatic relegation.
