Rotherham United Women F.C.

Rotherham United Women were formed as a youth club side in 1969, originally known as Kilnhurst Shooting Stars when women’s football was a minority sport with very few clubs in the area.

In the early 1970s the club changed their name to Kilnhurst Ladies and joined the newly formed Sheffield and District Ladies Sunday League.

Since 2012 Rotherham United Ladies FC played in the FA Women’s Premier League, Midlands Division 1.

At the start of the 2019/20 season the club decided to modernise the name of the team from Ladies to Women, the team is now know as Rotherham United Women FC.
