Millwall Lionesses

One of the oldest clubs and most recognisable names in women’s football, Millwall Lionesses Football Club is fiercely proud of its richly deserved reputation as a pioneering force of the British Women’s game.

First founded in 1972, the Lionesses became the first club in the country to be officially affiliated to a professional men’s team in the 1980s, as Millwall FC sought to strengthen their ties with the local community.

With the support of the Millwall Community programme, the Lionesses quickly became a leading light in women’s football. They were the first club in the country to open a Girls Centre of Excellence, allowing them to develop talented players from the age of eight, right through to senior level.

Many graduates of the Lionesses’ youth system have gone on to win honours, both on an international and domestic stage, including such legends of the women’s game as Hope Powell, Pauline Cope, Mary Phillip and Katie Chapman.
