They were previously known as Glasgow Girls at senior level before rebranding in 2020.

History

The club and was formed in 2008, following on from an earlier club called Clyde Girls. They initially operated at under-13 level, subsequently adding other age level teams and an adult team. Several of the original group of girls progressed to the senior team. An associated boys' club, Glasgow Boys, was founded in 2013,[6]

The club has been awarded the SFA Legacy Quality Mark, the national body's highest accreditation for organising football to a recognised standard.[7]
