Würzburger Kickers is a German women's association football team based in Würzburg, North Rhine-Westphalia.
History
Würzburg Dragons
Founded in 1974 as SC Heuchelhof, the club launched its girls' football program in 2010, which achieved success at youth level. Following its renaming to SC Würzburg Heuchelhof e.V. in May 2018, the club's girls' and women's section adopted the name Würzburg Dragons. In 2018–19, the club integrated the women's and U17 teams of ETSV Würzburg. Under head coach Gernot Haubenthal, the Dragons earned promotion to the Regionalliga Süd, and in the shortened 2019–20 season, won promotion to the 2. Frauen-Bundesliga.[1]
Würzburger Kickers
In January 2020, SC Würzburg Heuchelhof and FC Würzburger Kickers jointly announced the creation of a new independent club dedicated to girls' and women's football.[2] Branded under the Würzburger Kickers umbrella, the newly founded FC Würzburger Kickers Mädchen- & Frauenfußball e.V. began competition in the 2. Frauen-Bundesliga for the 2020–21 season after inheriting the playing license from the Würzburg Dragons.[3]
Despite strong foundations, the club was relegated from both the 2. Frauen-Bundesliga and later the Regionalliga Süd, returning to the Bayernliga ahead of the 2024–25 season.[4]
