The club joined the women's division of League1 Ontario for the 2017 season[4][5] becoming the first team in the league from Ottawa.[6] They played their first match against Vaughan Azzurri losing 2-1.[7][8] They left the league following the 2018 season.[9]

In 2017, the club formed a partnership with Major League Soccer club Montreal Impact’s Academy, becoming the first club from Ontario to partner with them.[10]
