Ipswich Town Women

It is unknown when the team was founded, but they are credited as being one of the first teams to compete in the newly founded Women's Premier League (now defunct) in 1991. The league was created to help bring women's regional football to a more national one and to bring it more in line with the male game. At the time, the league was seen as the tier 1 league in women's English football. Ipswich would go on to stay in the league for 2 more seasons until they were relegated to the Southern Division (now the FAWNL South Division) at the end of the 1993–94 season.

During the COVID-19 pandemic all football was stopped and the FA announced that all results for tiers 3–6 of women's football for the 2019–20 season were declared null and void, denying Town promotion despite being top of the league winning 11 out of 14 games and having a +42 goal difference at the time. When the 2020–21 season started, Town carried on their winning ways by winning their opening 4 games and sitting top of the league scoring 18 and conceding no goals before the season was halted again when the country went into another lockdown. After this lockdown and following a consultation from the FA, Town applied for promotion and were successful in their bid. Following promotion back to the FAWNL South Division, the club turned professional in June 2021 when Sophie Peskett signed Ipswich's first professional women's contract. This was soon followed when 8 further players, including Town's leading all-time scorer Natasha Thomas, all signed professional contracts.

On 19 February 2024, it was announced that Ipswich Town Women would play their first ever game at Portman Road for the game on 23 March 2024 against Chatham Town, with all four stands being open for ticket sales. They went on to win the game 5–0 in front of an attendance of 10,173. On 19 November 2024, it was announced that Ipswich Town Women would return to Portman Road for the upcoming game on 23 March 2025 against Plymouth.

On 27 April 2025, Town went into their final game of the season against Cheltenham Town looking to secure promotion and the title. Already being 3 points ahead of 2nd place Hashtag United and having a far more superior goal difference, promotion looked guaranteed. Town went on to win the match 8–0, winning the league title and secured promotion to the Women's Super League 2 for the first time in the club's history. On 23 June 2025 it was announced that after more than a decade, Town would be leaving their home ground of Dellwood Avenue in Felixstowe and relocating to the Colchester Community Stadium in Colchester on a two year deal. Town's head of women's football (Rachel Harris) and chairman (Mark Ashton) announced that the move away from Dellwood Avenue had to be made following the promotion to the Women's Super League 2 and having to meet league standards, but were also working towards securing a permanent home for the women's team in the Ipswich area.
