Eastbourne Borough Ladies were formed during the summer of 2004 and enjoyed a magnificent inaugural season, made even more remarkable by the fact that the majority of the squad consisted of players from the under 14 and 15 teams of the previous season.
2004/2005
The Ladies won the SCFA Womens' Section in 2004/05, during which they lost only one League game and finished nine points clear of runners-up Eastbourne Town Ladies. They also picked up 'Team of the Year' award in the annual Eastbourne Achievers' Awards.
On Sunday 17 April 2005, they completed a memorable 'treble' by winning the SCFA Womens' League Divisions 1 & 2 Knockout Cup
2005/2006
In 2005/06 the side competed in Division One West of the South East Counties Womens Football League and finished a creditable 3rd behind Meadow Sports and champions Bognor Regis Town.
2006/2007
The club again competed in the SECWFL Divison 1 West and improved their league position by 1 to 2nd, a single point behind eventual winners Woking Reserves, and were promoted to the Premier Division. In the League Cup the side exited at the semi-final stage to Lloyds and progressed to the final of the Junior Cup, losing 2-1 to Petts Wood.
2007/2008
This season saw Borough Ladies compete in the Premier Division of the South East Counties League finishing 6th and runners up in the League Cup.
Not being able to finish all of their league games due to the numerous postponements of home games eventually cost the ladies. The four games that were not played could have seen the team finish a point behind 2nd place Crawley.
Borough had their best ever season in the Womens FA Cup, eventually going out in the 3rd Qualifying round away at Salisbury.
The Sussex Cup saw Borough put in probably their worst performance of the season, losing heavily 4-0 away at Crawley.
The South East Counties League Cup saw the team reach the final, beating Lindfield, Ramsgate and Hassocks on route. Playing Crawley in the final at Horley, Borough gave as good as they got in an exciting final. Losing the game 2-1 really summed up the season for the Ladies, creating enough chances in games to be out of sight, but not being able to finish off the better teams.
