AFC Ajax (women)

AFC Ajax Vrouwen is a Dutch football club from Amsterdam representing AFC Ajax in the Vrouwen Eredivisie, the top women's league in the Netherlands. The team was founded in 2012 and played its first three seasons in the BeNe League before the Eredivisie re-formed. The club won its first title in its second season, winning the domestic KNVB Cup in the 2013Ã¢ÂÂ14 season. Ajax won its first two Eredivisie titles in back-to-back seasons in 2016Ã¢ÂÂ17 and 2017Ã¢ÂÂ18. It won its third title in the 2022Ã¢ÂÂ23 season. The best performance in the UEFA Women's Champions League came in the 2023Ã¢ÂÂ24 competition, when it finished second in the group stage before losing in the quarterfinals, the first Dutch club to reach that stage. After a third place finish in the 2024Ã¢ÂÂ25, Ajax qualified for the inaugural UEFA Women's Europa Cup.
