Denham United Ladies the Story so Far .  We were formerly known as Drayton Wanderers. The team was formed in 1987 with a group of under 10 year olds girls, the aim was to play organised football and in those early days we have played in several leagues, such as the Enfield girls league, Thames Valley league, Junior Southern Region league.

The girls started in ladies football in 1995 gaining promotion every year and then jumping each division until 1998/99 entering The South West Women’s Combination Football League, finishing 5th two season’s running before being relegated in 2000/01.

Season 2001/02 the ladies were Champions of Southern Region Premiership and were promoted to the South East Combinational League.

We have over thirty senior members at the club resulting in a reserves team introduced in 2000/01 and winning the GLRWFL Reserves Div 2 in their first year.

During 1998/1999 the Ladies took over the Denham United facilities as the men’s team folded and since then have introduced a large junior girls section to fully utilise the facilities and become a Ladies/Girls only football Club.
