Cheltenham completed the 2021/22 League and Cup double this season by winning FA Women's National League Division One South West and Gloucester Women's Trophy earning promotion to FA Women's National League Southern Division.

Manager Tom Davies also scooped The FA Women's National League Division One West "Manager of the Year 2022/21" after previously winning December's Tier 4 Manager of the Month.

For two seasons until the end of 2022/23, their football ground was The Corinium Stadium, in Cirencester. However they will be moving closer to Cheltenham for season 2023/24, when they will play at the Kayte Lane ground of Bishop's Cleeve FC.

History

The club was formed in 1989 as 'Cheltenham YMCA'. They started out in the South West Combination League, but their first team was eventually promoted to the FA Women's Premier League in the 2013/14 season.

During the 2016/17 season, Cheltenham won the GFA County Cup in a 5-4 penalty shootout against St Nicholas Ladies Football Club. They later won the GFA Cup again during the 2018/19 season, with a 10–0 victory over Frampton Rangers Football club. This was also the season in which they were nominated for FA WNL Club of the year.
