Futebol Feminino do Famalicão, commonly known as Famalicão, is a women's football club from Vila Nova de Famalicão, in Braga District, Portugal. The team, a section of F.C. Famalicão, was founded in 2019[1] and promoted to the top tier Campeonato Nacional Feminino in 2020.[2] The women's team plays home games at the club's 500-capacity Academia do F.C.

The sale of Mylena Freitas to Shanghai Shengli in May 2021 for 50,000 represented a Portuguese national record transfer fee for a female player.[3] In July 2021 the club appointed former Brazil women's national football team coach Jorge Barcellos.[4]
