VfB Stuttgart founded its women's football department on 31 May 2021. Since 1 July 2022, the first women's team has been part of VfB Stuttgart 1893 AG, the company that operates the professional football department of the club.[1] The women's team started competing in the 2022–23 season, with plans for multiple teams in cooperation with VfB Obertürkheim whose women's football department officially established in 1994.[2]
