history
AC Milan has been active in the field of women's football since 2015 and has its own youth section for female footballers, but did not have its own professional women's team until 2018. The establishment of a women's team was only made possible by a regulation passed in 2015 by the Italian football association Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio , which allows Italian men's professional clubs to set up a women's football department and take over women's football clubs.
In the past, there were several women's football clubs in Milan with names and club colors similar to those of AC Milan, such as the Associazione Calcio Femminile Milan founded in 1965, the Associazione Calcio Femminile Ladies Milan 82 founded in 1982 or the Football Milan Association founded in 2013 , which, however, have no connection to the club.
The women's football department of AC Milan was founded on June 11, 2018 and was able to start in the Serie A for women in the same year after the right to start the first division was acquired from the Brescia- based ACF Brescia Calcio Femminile .
