History

In the 2019–2020 season of the Indian Women's League, the team bowed out in the group stage finishing fourth with five points. For the 2020–2021, the club was invited into the final round after SSB Women's FC, failed to confirm their participation. Since there was no women's league in West Bengal, Sreebhumi was invited based on their previous season's performance. In 2023–2024, the Indian Women's League was expanded to two tiers. The club took part in Tier 2 and won the championship, and were promoted to Tier 1 again for the 2024–2025 season. In the season opener in their away match at Chennai, they gave a tough fight to Sethu FC, before losing 0–1 on 12 January 2025.
