Trailfinders Women

In the 2010–11 season, Ealing Trailfinders Rugby Club operated an amateur women's side, Ealing Jades Ladies, which competed in RFUW NC South East 1. They finished 7th place out of the 8 teams.^[1] The team did not appear again until the 2021–22 Women's NC 3 South East (Central) season when they were known as Ealing Trailfinders Ladies and they finished at the bottom of the table.^[2] In 2022–23, they competed in Women's National Challenge 3 South East (West) when they finished in 5th place.^[3]

After the founding of Trailfinders Women, Ealing Trailfinders Ladies changed names and became Ealing Women II. Trailfinders Women were founded as a new team.

In July 2022 Giselle Mather was named as Director of Women's Rugby at Ealing Trailfinders.^[4] The club then announced in December 2022 that it had been granted a license by the RFU to join the Premier 15s (later renamed to Premiership Women's Rugby) starting in the 2023–24 season.^[5] The full coaching staff for the club was named later that month.^[6] The clubs first signing was England wing Abby Dow.^[7][8] Other notable signings for Ealing's inaugural season included Ireland international Emma Swords and Italy prop Sara Seye.^[9][10]

Ealing's first ever win in the league came in a 36–7 victory over Leicester Tigers Women.^[11]
