History
Benfica refounded its women's team in 2018, after decades without activity in women's football, with a professional structure based at Benfica Campus, in Seixal. The debut was remarkable: in the first season, the team won the second division with historic victories and immediately moved up to the National Championship. In the 2020-21 season, the club won its first top-division Portuguese title. From then on, Benfica consolidated itself as a force in Portuguese women's football, accumulating national titles, Portuguese Cups, and League Cups, while competing in the UEFA Women's Champions League and reaching the group stage of the competition. Investment in infrastructure and youth development transformed the team into a benchmark for the growth of women's football in the country, attracting record attendance for matches at Estádio da Luz.
