Our History

Clapton Orient WFC also famously known as the COWS, was formed back in the 1992-93 season as a product of Leyton Orient FC's Community Sports Programme. This was one of the first community schemes, supported by the local boroughs including Hackney, to develop women's and girls' football in the local area. Clapton Orient is Leyton Orient's pre-war name and where they used to play. In 2007 Clapton Orient WFC changed it's name to Tower Hamlets WFC; playing and training within the borough Tower Hamlets.

In April 2008 the club achieved FA Charter Standard Status. This best practice scheme sets standards of coaching and administration for amateur football clubs - more details can be found at www.thefa.com/grassrootsnew/charterstandard
