León Fútbol Femenino is a Spanish women's football club from León currently playing in Segunda División.[1] The club was founded as Puente Castro FC before taking its current name in 1991.[2] Puente Castro was one of the nine founding teams of the Liga Nacional de Fútbol Femenino in 1988.[3]
The club enjoyed its best results in the following years, reaching the national cup's semifinals in 1990 and 1993[4] and playing in the División de Honor in 1989 — 1991 and 1995.
