The club was founded after the ladies team representing Wimbledon F.C. decided to transfer to AFC Wimbledon, after the old club's relocation. The ladies team of Fulham F.C., known as Friends of Fulham, started its bonds with the name Wimbledon, when they voted yes on the decision to transfer to Wimbledon F.C., as a new entity.^{[clarification needed]} AFC Wimbledon Ladies are now owned by The Dons Trust.

From 2003 to 2006 it was one of the few Women's Premier League sides not to be affiliated with a club from the male Premiership or Football League.

On Sunday 24 October 2021, AFC Wimbledon beat Walton Casuals 7–1 in the FA Cup 3rd qualifying round in their first game at the club's main Plough Lane Stadium.

Founded as AFC Wimbledon Ladies, the club rebranded to 'AFC Wimbledon Women' before the 2022–23 season.

In April 2024, the club were confirmed champions of Division One South East, securing promotion to Premier Division South for the 2024–25 season.^[2]
