History

Founded in 1997, for the initial two seasons of its existence the club was under the auspices of Preston Athletic.[2] The name changed to Hibernian in 1999 and they became one of the leading women's teams in Scotland.[3] In 2006–07 Hibs secured a domestic double, finishing the league campaign with an 100% record. The club has won the league championship three times[4] and then represented Scotland in the UEFA Women's Cup. In that competition they failed to progress beyond the first round in each instance, finishing second twice and third once in the group stage.

Hibernian won the Women's Scottish Cup in 2010, for the fifth time in eight years.[5] The team's success in the national cup competition was contrasted to their male affiliate,[6] who had not won the Scottish Cup for over a century until their victory in 2016.

In January 2011, six Hibernian players were called into the Scotland women's national football team squad.[7] In May 2011 Hibernian beat local rivals Spartans 5–2 in the Scottish Women's Premier League Cup final.[8]

Stadium

For the 2011 season, Hibernian L.F.C. moved into Albyn Park, Broxburn,[9] the home of junior football club Broxburn Athletic. The club had previously played its home matches on the training ground of Hibernian F.C. in East Lothian.[9]
