==History==
The Birth Of Derby County Ladies FC
The club that was to become Derby County LFC started out as the idea of Sheila Rollinson and Jess Reid, who at the time were both playing for the Coventry based ladies side Holbrooks Athletic. Sheila had recently moved to the Derby area and Jess lived in Burton, so they came up with the idea of forming a new more locally based team.
Adverts for players were placed in both the Burton Mail and the Derby Evening Telegraph and at that time more of the replies came from the Burton area, so Burton Wanderers was born. The club’s first season was 1978/9 in the Midland League (which later became the West Midlands League) and saw the club playing at Shobnall Fields in Burton, with Phil Rollinson as manager and Bob Reid acting as club secretary. Training sessions were held in Bitham School sports hall.
After one season in the Midland league the club decided to move to the Nottingham League (later the East Midlands League) due to the standard of football being of a higher level. At this time a national women’s league was not in place and as such the club regularly played against teams such as Doncaster Belles, which at the time contained most of the England team. Junior leagues were not in place and with girls not being allowed to play in boys’ teams, the side often had 11- 13 year olds playing alongside adults.
With the demise of another local side, Derby Rangers, a number of experienced players joined the club and in 1985 the club secured its first sponsorship deal with the Beacon Hotel The deal saw the clubs name change to Beacon Wanderers. During this period Dave Elks enjoyed a lengthy spell as the clubs manager before handing over to Malcolm Aldridge. Gradually the balance of players swung more towards the Derby area and as the club name no longer included Burton, it seemed sensible to move both matches and training sessions to Derby. For a while Leesbrook school was the venue for both before eventually Derby City Councils Parkers Piece ground became the clubs home.
In 1990 John Jarman started the Community Department at Derby County Football Club and in the same year he held discussion with the management of Beacon Wanderers which eventually lead to the formation of Derby County Ladies FC. At that time the club consisted of a single open-age team, however the association with Derby County quickly saw it extended to a reserve and third team. The first manager of the newly formed DCLFC was Neil Crofts

The Early Years & Raf Long
Training for DCLFC was moved from Leesbrook to the now defunct DCFC Ramarena training ground, with the club playing an FA cup tie there.
In 1993 the FA were instructed by UEFA to take over the running of Women’s football and as a result a structure was put into place which eventually saw the setting up of the National League structure. This was done on a selection as opposed to results basis, with the FA identifying which teams it felt were appropriate for leagues within the structure.
As part of this the Midland Combination league was formed with Derby County becoming founder members. At this juncture Maggit and Deb Newham became the first female managers of the club.
In 1997 Raffaele ( Raf ) Long made contact with the club in order to secure coaching hours to contribute to his UEFA B licence qualification. This marked the start of a long association with the club, which saw Raf become its first Chairman, a post that he eventually relinquished in 2013.
The New Millennium & A Rise To National League Level
in 2001/02, DCLFC recruited their first “official” junior squads which lead to them having U14 and U12 squads competing in Notts Girls League for first time. Both teams enjoyed hugely successful seasons with each achieving the league and cup double. Steve Hall managed the U14 side which included Precious Hamilton, a player who would go on to represent the club a senior level as well as going on to play WSL football for Notts County.
The same season saw the clubs senior side struggle under the helm of then manager, Richard Astle. A number had left the club to join Sandiacre Town and relegation to the Unison East Midlands League came in the penultimate game of the season when a 9th minute of injury time goal by Stafford Rangers saw both teams relegated.
The 2002/03 was one of consolidation although the club did reach the leagues cup semi final where they lost to eventual league champions, Nottingham Forest. At junior level the club continued to blossom with a number of successes achieved
2003/4 saw DCLFC strengthened at Junior level with the introduction of a further two age specific sides. At senior level, Steve Hall stepped up to become first team manager and under his stewardship the club secured runners up spot behind Leicester City, whilst they lost in the league cup final to the same side.
2004/5 proved to be the clubs most successful season to that point with their history, with the first team completing a league and cup double in the Unison East Midlands Premier Division, which saw them gain promotion to the Midland Combination League. The Reserves finished a creditable third in the newly formed Reserve division, and in doing so moved up a level to play in the Combination League. At junior level the clubs sides continued to secure silverware on a number of front
.2005/6 saw Derby County Ladies participate as a founder member of the inaugural FA Midland Centre of Excellence programme, with teams competing at U16 and U14 age group. Their participation in the programme reaped immediate reward in the form of England recognition for U16 captain Cara Newton. At senior level the first team enjoyed a season of consolidation, finishing a creditable 4th in their first season in the Midland Combination League. Notable results included a seven-goal mauling of TNS (who were league leaders at the time) in January, and a single goal victory over eventual league champions Crewe in the last game of the season. The Reserves also competed admirably in their first season in the Midland Combination Reserves League.
Both 2006/07 and 2007/08 saw the club compete at the top end of the Midland Combination league, whilst the clubs junior sides continued to enjoy successful seasons across the board.
2008-9 was seen as a land mark one in the clubs history as the first team not only won the league cup but finally won the Midland Combination league following a 4-2 win over Crewe in final League game of the season. The fixture was played at Derby County FC’s Pride Park stadium and the result saw the club gain promotion to the Women’s Premier League.. The clubs Reserves won Reserve Cup, whilst their U16s, U12’s and U10’s all achieved league and cup double success.
Establishing At Premier League Level
2009/10 proved to be a tough baptism in the WPL. Needing two points from the last two games to ensure they retained their status in the league, Derby travelled to Aston Villa for the penultimate game of the season. With 30 minutes remaining they found themselves 2-0 down before staging a brilliant come-back, with a fantastic Emily Jeffery strike sealing a 3-2 victory and with it safety
2010/11 proved to be Steve Hall’s final one as manager, prior to him stepping down and it proved to be a successful one as the club secured a commendable 5th place finish behind league champions Aston Villa and runners up Coventry City.
2011/12 saw former junior coach, John Bennett return to the club as its first team manager when John Townson’s brief tenure in charge was halted when he was given a professional contract closer to his North West home. The season once again proved successful with the club again finishing 5th. Manchester City pipping Sheffield FC to the title
2012/13 proved poor after the previous two, and saw the club finish one place off the bottom of the league. However with only one team being relegated and local rivals Leicester City securing only four points all season, the clubs were never in danger of losing their WPL status.During this season the FA announced the launch of the Women’s Super league (WSL) and invited applications from clubs playing at Premier League level. Derby submitted an application to join the league, however it proved unsuccessful falling short of the required challenging criteria in a number of areas. Shortly after the outcome was advised, Raf Long ended his 16 year association with the club, as he stepped down as the clubs chairman to take up the Director role at the Leicester City Centre Of Excellence.
A Rams Revolution Commences
2013/14 Saw the club start without a chairman, however they were able to welcome FA Regional Coach John Griffiths to the club in a mentoring role initially to the clubs senior coaching staff.
On the back of the failed WSL bid, the clubs committee decided to look towards a more commercially and business focused model and sought to appoint a new figure head to lead the club in addressing the shortcomings that had been identified within the failed bid.
Duncan Gibb an experienced Commercial Manager within the leisure and sport industry took up an offer to join the club as its Chief Executive in September 2013.
Gibb moved quickly to address two identified weaknesses, namely a lack of external investment and a poor profile. He secured club partners (sponsors) for each of the teams 10 sides before turning his attention to the clubs profile and securing a dedicated slot for the club on BBC Radio Derby’s Sportscene programme.
On the back of this dedicated weekly club columns in both the Derby Telegraph and Burton Mail were secured on the back of meetings with the respective papers editors.
On the pitch Gibb appointed Griffiths to a newly created Director Of Football role that saw him introduce a playing philosophy throughout the club and in essence run the football side of things, while Gibb looked to address the off field shortcomings within the WSL bid.
The season proved to be John Bennett’s last as manager and he guided the club to a respectable 7th-place finish after the previous disappointing season. Bennett took the decision due to family commitments and one of his last games at the helm saw the club win the Derbyshire County Cup for a third consecutive year beating Sandiacre Town 6-2 in the final.
As part of its plans to raise the clubs profile, a friendly match was secured against 11 times league champions and former Champions League winners, Arsenal FC. A club record crowd of 600 saw a full strength Arsenal side consisting of England internationals, Kelly Smith, Rachel Yankey and Casey Stoney eventually defeat a resilient Rams side 5-0
2014/15 Following receipt of over 30 applications the club returned to a female manager, appointing Jenny Sugarman to the role. Unfortunately after an encouraging start to the season, results deteriorated and with the club firmly entrenched in a relegation battle they parted company with Sugarman shortly prior to Xmas.
Reserve Team Managers, Ash Abbey and Jack White undertook the role in an interim basis steadying the ship, before Stuart Wilson was appointed at the start of February. Wilson had previously won the league with Aston Villa and had recently been interviewed for the England U17’s management role. Ironically the role had been secured by John Griffiths who as a result was forced to relinquish his Director Of Football role at Derby County.
Wilson’s tenure couldn’t have been any more challenging starting with two marquee friendly fixtures against firstly reigning WSL Champions, Liverpool and a week later against reigning FA Cup holders, Arsenal. The games saw both clubs field full strength sides with gates of over 600 witnessing each. The Liverpool game had been initially postponed due to a frozen pitch with over 1,000 tickets having already been snapped up, however the re-scheduled date fell on the same night that the men’s club played.
With these marquee friendly fixtures out of the way, Wilsons impact was immediate and the side embarked on an incredible sequence of results that saw them not only avoid relegation, but secure a top half 6th placed finish
Off the pitch, representatives of the club attended the annual FA Awards in London, where they saw the club secure runners up spot in the FA Club Of The Year awards on the back of the previous year’s developments both on and off the pitch. However the best was saved until last when club founder Sheila Rollinson picked up the main award of the night when she was recognised for her ‘ Outstanding Contribution To Women’s Football ‘. The award was not just seen as a hugely justified accolade for her part in the amazing journey of Derby County from a local parks side to an established WPL club, but for her contribution to the wider game.
2015/16 On the pitch the club increased its portfolio of teams to 11 with the introduction of an U18’s side to act as a conduit between its senior and academy sides. Whilst off the pitch the club continued to tick the boxes that saw its 2013 WSL bid rejected.
Dave Cholerton was appointed to the newly created Academy Director role that saw him oversee each of the clubs 9 junior sides, whilst the clubs Executive Committee was replaced by a Board Of Directors that include a Finance Director, Operations Director, Media Director and Commercial Director.
The relationship with the main club was recognised by both parties as being the best that it has been, with DCFC providing support to the ladies arm of the club in a number of ways, whilst DCLFC have supported a number of DCFC club initiatives
With half the season gone Derby topped the Premier League and have just been named as the Derby City Club Of The Year. The clubs home league game with local rivals, Nottingham Forest in October saw a post WSL, Premier League crowd record of 405 set.
Grace John became the first current Ewe Rams player to represent a senior national side when she captained Grenada during World Cup Pre Qualification
