The 2009–10 Clemson Tigers women's basketball team represented Clemson University during the 2009–10 NCAA Division I women's basketball season. The Tigers were led by fifth year head coach Cristy McKinney. The Tigers, members of the Atlantic Coast Conference, played their home games at Littlejohn Coliseum.

Canadian tour

The Clemson Women's Basketball team wrapped up a successful western Canadian Tour, with a 4-2 record. The Lady Tigers played two games against the Canadian National team, and one each versus the University of British Columbia, Trinity Western, University College of the Fraser Valley, and Vancouver Island University. Clemson is widely regarded as the first women's team from a major NCAA conference to visit many of these universities. Clemson won the four games without All-ACC player Lele Hardy, who made the trip but was unable to participate due to injury.
