Al-Shoulla Women's Football Club or simply known as Al-Shoulla Ladies (Arabic: سيدات الشعلة) is a professional women's football team based in Al Kharj that currently plays in Saudi Women's First Division League, the second tier of women's football in Saudi Arabia.[1]

History

[edit]

Established in 2023, the club went on to sign a Jordanian-Tunisian staff to lead their team in the first season in the first division league.[2] Infused with a Tunisian flavor, the club signed four Tunisian players and one Egyptian to finalize their foreign player list.[3] Placed in the central region group.[4] the team secured second place out of six, winning six of their matches. Their victories included impressive results of 17–0 against Al-Orobah and 18–0 and 20–0 against Al-Watani, which qualified them for the final stages.[5][6] In the final stages, the team suffered two losses, which confirmed their retention in the league.[7]

In 2024, the team introduced a futsal second that competed in the Women's Futsal Championship, finishing 5th overall.[8]
