Plymouth Argyle Women Football Club, formerly known as Plymouth Argyle Ladies Football Club, are a women's amateur association football club based in the city of Plymouth, Devon, England. They compete in the FA Women's National League South.
Founded in 1975, they come under the bracket of Plymouth Argyle F.C., and play their home games at Manadon Sports Hub, Plymouth, which is owned and operated by the PAFC Community Trust.
History
The club was formed in 1975 as a result of a 5-a-side league at the Mayflower Leisure Centre. Two teams merged in order to enter an 11-a-side football tournament in Newquay, Cornwall with the team creating the name of 'Plymouth Pilgrims'. Following the success of the tournament, Plymouth Pilgrims played in numerous competitions throughout the 1970s and 1980s with the most notable achievement being reaching the quarter-finals of the Women's FA Cup in both 1976 and 1977.
The club name changed to 'Saltash Pilgrims' in the late 1990s and the early part of the year 2000 to reflect their home ground at the time – Saltash United's Kimberly Stadium in Cornwall. It was not until the 2001–02 season that the club, then competing in the SW Combination League, were invited to compete under the umbrella of Plymouth Argyle F.C., and Plymouth Argyle Ladies were formed.
In August 2020, Ryan Perks was appointed manager. A year later, ahead of the 2021–22 season, the club changed name, replacing the suffix Ladies Football Club with Women Football Club, as the club transferred from under the management of the Argyle Community Trust, to being taken under the professional wing of Plymouth Argyle.
El club se fundó en 1990 como una sección femenina del Plymouth Argyle Football Club. El equipo pasó los primeros años en la Liga Regional Femenina del Sur antes de ascender a la División Nacional Femenina en 1999. El Plymouth se mantuvo en la División Nacional durante cinco temporadas, pero descendió a la Liga Regional Femenina del Sur en 2004.
El equipo volvió a ascender a la División Nacional en 2006 y desde entonces ha permanecido en la segunda división del fútbol femenino inglés. El Plymouth ha ganado la Copa de Devon en dos ocasiones, en 2005 y 2007.
El estadio del Plymouth es el Devonport High School for Girls. El equipo juega sus partidos en casa en el estadio durante la temporada.
Los colores del Plymouth son el verde y el blanco. El escudo del equipo es un escudo verde con una franja blanca en el centro. En la franja blanca hay un león dorado rampante. El león es el símbolo de Plymouth.
El Plymouth Argyle Ladies Football Club es un club de fútbol femenino con una rica historia.
