Leicester City’s up and coming Women’s team have completed 5 seasons which saw 4 successive promotions to gain a place in the FA Tesco Women’s Premier League Northern Division. The City side have grown in strength over the years and gained 3 League Cups, 4 Leagues and 4 County Cups in that short time. Supporting the Women’s team City have a strong Centre of Excellence with teams at U16, U14, U12 and U10 who compete in the West Midlands Centre of Excellence League, plus an Academy based at South Leicester College for U19’s playing against teams such as Arsenal, Chelsea and Millwall.

Over the years the club has seen 18 players involved with the International set up at various youth levels and continuously strives to produce more. Most notably Captain Remi Allen has gained over 20 caps at International level and is still heavily involved with the U19’s. The current Manager Rehanne Skinner is in her 3rd season Managing the side after previously being a player and has had an impressive record in that time.

In terms of the football, City are a hardworking side that take nothing for granted and strive to be professional in every aspect possible.

We also have quality training facilities including 3g and a quality home pitch in Blaby, Leicestershire.
