History

edit

In 2007, amid dwindling participation in women's and girls' football nationwide, the Suwon City Government announced its intention to form South Korea's sixth women's works football team.[1] The club was founded in February 2008 as Suwon Facilities Management Corporation WFC.[2] The team has played in the WK League since its inaugural season in 2009.[3] They have won the championship title twice, in 2010 and 2024.[4][5]

Before the 2022 WK League season, the team merged with the Suwon FC men's team and changed their name to Suwon FC Women.[6]
