Welcome to Cheltenham Town Ladies Football Club
Cheltenham Town Ladies FC are the leading women’s football club in Gloucestershire and the wider region with almost 150 members. The First Team play in the FA Women’s National League Southern Premier Division.
The club itself is continuously developing and improving, and for 2022/23, the First Team will play their home fixtures at the Corinium Stadium, which we groundshare with Cirencester Town FC, of the men’s Southern League Division One South. Our Youth section, created through a merger with Cheltenham Spa Girls FC, offers a clear pathway for girls and ladies football from ages 10 and above.
First Team Manager Tom Davies was promoted to Head Coach in May 2020 after joining the club the previous summer. Davies is ably assisted by First Team Coaches Dan Liddiard, Simon Beardswell and Richard Wood, with physio Katy Jackson.
Our sponsors continue to be impressed by our achievements and we are always looking to attract more partnership or sponsorship deals. Our audience and exposure reached over a million people during the past year thanks to radio, website, newspaper and social media. The club has also seen increases in average attendances in each of the past three seasons.
Please find the appropriate age groups from the Team menu (top of the website) for training times and venues for our youth teams.
