the women's football team

Brøndby IF is a Danish professional women's football team based in Brøndby, Denmark. Brøndby compete in A-Liga, the Danish top-flight division and play their matches at the 1964 Park stadium.

The team is one of Denmark's best women's teams, having won six championships and 5 cups in the 2000s. The team also reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Women's Cup 2003–04, UEFA Women's Cup 2006-07 and UEFA Women's Cup 2014-15, but they have struggled to reach European football in the later years, as the competition nationally and internationally has improved. They are currently coached by Bengt Sæternes, who replaced Per Nielsen after many years at the club.

On 30 April 2024, Brøndby announced that the women's team was to move from the amateur side of the club to the profesional side in the coming summer. On 11 November 2024 the club announced that it would introduce full-time football for the women's team, being the first club in Denmark to make the move to full-time football for all first team players. The moves comes as part of a long term strategy to strengthen women's football and create an environment of optimum development. It also comes as a reaction to the general developing state of women's football throughout Europe and the world.

History

The team's first ever independent kit was launched in 2025 for the 2025–26 A-Liga season. It is designed by Hummel and the home kit, launched in August, features the golden Brøndby colour in two-toned horizontal blocks separated by a blue line. The away kit was released in September and is black with diagonal dark grey bolts, pink paint spills on the chest framed by pink sleeve lines.
