Suwon FC Women () is a South Korean women's football team based in Suwon. They compete in the WK League, the highest division of women's football in South Korea.
History In 2007, amid dwindling participation in women's and girls' football nationwide, the Suwon City Government announced its intention to form South Korea's sixth women's works football team. The club was founded in February 2008 as Suwon Facilities Management Corporation WFC. The team has played in the WK League since its inaugural season in 2009. Suwon FMC won the championship title in 2010.
In 2019, the club reached the championship final for the first time since their 2010 title win.
Before the 2022 WK League season, the club merged with the existing Suwon FC men's team and changed its name to Suwon FC Women. In 2022, Suwon signed Ji So-yun from Chelsea in a move that aimed to increase interest not only in the club, but in the WK League as a whole. Ji left the club to join NWSL side Seattle Reign in 2024, after Suwon reached the 2023 WK League championship final but ultimately finished as runners-up.
Suwon FC won its second WK League title in 2024, qualifying for the 2025–26 AFC Women's Champions League. In the group stage of the tournament, the club played against North Korean side Naegohyang WFC in the first ever inter-Korean clash in women's club football, eventually losing 3–0. Despite finishing third in the group, Suwon progressed to the knockout stage, where they defeated defending champions Wuhan Jiangda 4–0 to advance to the semi-finals, earning the right to host the competition's finals.
Stadium Suwon FC play their home matches at the main stadium of Suwon Sports Complex. Prior to the 2022 merging of Suwon FC and Suwon UDC, the two teams shared the stadium. The multi-purpose stadium has a capacity of 11,800.
