📜 Tottenham Hotspur Women History
The team was founded by 2 players, Sue Sharples and Kay Lovelock, in 1985 as Broxbourne Ladies after their previous team – East Herts College – had folded.
In 1991, Broxbourne Ladies approached Tottenham and were granted permission to use the club's name. They were able to form a reserve team shortly after, and the team continued to grow as they rose through the ranks of English women's football winning multiple regional league titles over the decades that followed.
In 2015-16 and 2016-17 Spurs achieved back-to-back cup doubles, lifting both the Ryman's Women's Cup and the Women's Premier League Cup in both seasons.
The team were eventually brought fully in-house by Tottenham as they became fully professional, and in 2019 they earned promotion to the women's top-flight, the Women's Super League, for the first time.
