History

The club formed in 2020 after Lincoln Red Imps decided to disband their women's team, announcing its first signings along with its intention to compete on 1 December 2020.[1] The team played their first ever game 2 weeks later, in the Gibraltar Women's Football League against Lions Gibraltar, a 3-0 defeat.[2] After their first season, manager Col Griffiths stepped down on 30 June 2021.
