renfrew ladies football club

Formerly known as Viewfield Rovers Ladies FC, the team played their 1st season in March 2014 as Renfrew Ladies FC, finishing 3rd & winning the League Cup. Due to an administration error the team failed to register for the 2015 season. Renfrew returned in 2016, training and playing home games at New Western Park, and playing in the SWFL 2nd Division South West. It was a successful season with the team winning the league after an unbeaten campaign, scoring 145 goals and conceding only 11 on the way. Good runs in both the League Cup and the Scottish Cup saw Renfrew Ladies lose to the eventual winners in both competitions. Renfrew currently play in the SWF Championship the 3rd tier of women's football in Scotland.
