The club was originally founded on 15 June 1988 as Huddersfield Ladies FC and joined the North-East Regional League Division 2 where, in their first season, they won the league Cup and were promoted to Division one as champions. Over the next few seasons there were signs that an exciting team was beginning to emerge and season 1992-3 saw them 3rd in the league and runners-up in the League Cup to a very experienced Doncaster Town. Rumours of town’s exciting style of play began to attract players from else where during the close season and the 1993-4 season began with a 2 – 1 victory over Doncaster Belles whose side included at least eight players who were to go on to win the WFA Cup that year. The average age of the side was 20 and the team were recognised across the region with several players winning representative honours at Open age and under 21 levels.
At the end of 1992-3 season, Huddersfield ladies merged with Huddersfield Town Juniors, becoming Huddersfield Town Ladies FC. The immediate benefit was that the new club boasted competitive teams at Open age (2), Under 16, Under 14 and Under 12 levels.
Season 1993-94 saw the 1st team carry all before them, losing only once all season and winning the League championship, the league cup, the Yorkshire cup, Arco 7-a-side cup, the regional 5-a-side trophy and at Woking they were crowned National 5-a-side champions. Leading scorer was Tina Brammar whose 103 goals earned her an entry in the Guinness Book of records. With strike partner Jaki Knight also chipping in with over 50 goals, both girls were duly called up for England during the season and went on to win their first International caps.

The following season saw the 1st team retain the league championship, winning all 16 league matches and scoring 101 goals in the process, only conceding 14. Although failing to retain the Knock-out cup, Town held on to the Yorkshire Cup, beating a strong Newcastle side 5 – 3 in the final. In the W.F.A. Cup, the club reached the quarter finals, only to go out to Bristol City by the odd goal in seven in injury time. However the club were elected to the Women’s Premier League through success in the play-offs.

In the following season Town were runners up in the division to Tranmere. However, in subsequent seasons we were never able to mount a sustained challenge although this was in part offset by good runs in the W.F.A. Cup.

Eventually Town were relegated twice over successive seasons to the Yorkshire and Humberside Premier League. However, in the same period a lot of time and effort was invested in producing a new crop of talented young players from within our own junior ranks. Last season saw the team, containing several teenagers; qualify for the more prestigious North East Premier League. As the juniors gained experience, under the guidance of former England World Cup Player, Clare Taylor, so the results improved, with the team going on long unbeaten runs over the second half to the season and reaching 3 semi finals.

The club is now looking forward with optimism to the 2008/9 season and hope to maintain our recent progress. Ultimately the target is to reach the Women’s Premier League.
