Falkirk Ladies Football Club are a Scottish women's football club from the town of Falkirk. They play in the Scottish Women's Premier League and also compete in the Women's Premier League Cup and Scottish Cup. They are not to be confused with the women's section of Falkirk F.C.

History

Falkirk Ladies were formed in 1993 as Falkirk Girls when a group of women looking to play organised football joined forces with a girls-only coaching group from Falkirk FC.[1] The club currently run age-group teams from U–11 through to U–17. The Senior Ladies side are based at Westfield Park in Denny, home of Dunipace Juniors.[2] In 2014 they joined with Stirling University F.C. Ladies and will compete as Stirling University and Falkirk L.F.C. from 2015 onwards.[3][4]
