A founding member of the BeNe League in 2012, the team was known as PSV/FC Eindhoven and supported jointly by FC Eindhoven and PSV.[1] Following the BeNe League's dissolution after the 2014–15 season, the team joined the Eredivisie as the women's team of PSV.[2]

History

edit

PSV won its first trophy in 2021, defeating ADO Den Haag to win the KNVB Women's Cup. The team was in first place when the 2019–20 season was suspended early due to the COVID-19 pandemic; the KNVB, the national governing body for football, did not name a champion. The following two seasons, PSV qualified to the UEFA Champions League.

PSV won the 2025–26 Eredivisie title on 8 May 2026, beating ADO Den Haag 2–0 to secure the championship with one game remaining, earning their first league title after narrowly missing out on goal difference the previous season.[3]
