Womens football got underway in this country as a direct result of the 1966 World Cup Competition, when women all over the country decided it was time to break into this male dominated sport. Nearly 10 years later in 1974, a group of Exeter City supporters formed what was to become Exeter Ladies Football Club

In the 1975-76 season the club entered the Dean Developement Trophy, a local competition for Devon Womens Football Clubs. It was to be the start of an era for ladies football in Devon, Exeter won the cometition and along with other clubs who took part, formed the Devon Womens Football League which finally got under way in September 1976.

As a finale to the season, Exeter represented Devon in the Southern England 6 a side Championships and in reaching the semi - finals, suddenly found them selves being the talked about team. Within hours of arriving home started coming in from top clubs wishing to play Exeter. With their thoughts , requests firmly placed on League Football, Exeter Ladies have been accepted into the Western League where they will play clubs of an extremely high standard, and next season England team players will be among the opposition.

Because of the success, many new players have joined Exeter, and the club will be among the first, certainly in the south west, to run two sides. The second team will play in the Devon League.
