Fluminense Football Club, known as Fluminense, is a Brazilian women's Association football club, based in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

History

Founded on 11 October 2018 after a partnership with a social project named Daminhas da Bola,[1] the women's football section was created mainly to comply with CONMEBOL and CBF's obligations for the 2019 season.[2] They finished second in the Campeonato Carioca in their first two seasons of existence, while also playing in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A2.

In June 2023, Fluminense achieved their first-ever promotion to the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A1, after defeating JC on penalties.[3]
