The 1969–70 Delaware Fightin' Blue Hens women's basketball team represented the University of Delaware during the 1969–70 school year. A committee approached the university's athletic council in early 1969 to gain approval for the university to begin sanctioning women's intercollegiate sports.[1] Women's basketball, field hockey, and swimming were approved on an experimental two-year basis.[2] Delaware played a six game season, finishing with a 1–5 record.[3]
