Top Flight Record

The club was a founding member of the Premier League in 2009, taking part in the four team Southern Conference.

The first two seasons saw the club finish in second place in the Southern Conference behind eventual champions Swansea City Ladies, having won all their matches, except the encounters with The Swans. The 2011/12 season proved to be their year as they avoided defeat against the reigning champions and qualified for the Championship Final, which they won 3-0 against Wrexham Ladies at Victoria Park, Llanidloes. Nadia Lawrence, Sophie Scherschel and Lauran Welsh scored the goals that sealed the club's first ever national title.

Trivia

Cardiff Met. Ladies made history by recording the new record win for a Women's Premier League match on 10 March 2013 when they defeated Caerphilly Castle Ladies 43-0, surpassing a previous record set by Newcastle Emlyn Ladies against the same opponents.[4] Emily Allen holds the record of the most number of goals in a Women's Premier League match, with 15 in Cardiff Met. Ladies record win.[4] After half a season Caerphilly Castle though withdrew from the league and results were deleted from standings. So both records are void now.
