Here's a small intro;
Relatively young squad having pretty much been an U20 squad last season, bit of a turn over from last seasons squad.
Coached by Marianne Spacey-Cale, who was highly regarded at The FA and is seen as bit of a coup when appointed.
Team plays in effectively a grassroots league, which is a frustration amongst players - train in a multi - million pound complex and then end up playing Sunday league opposition. Got knocked out by Portsmouth in Hampshire Cup (have a terrible record against them).
The younger age groups is an impressive set up (RTC - female equivalent of an academy). Runs in parallel to boy academy in terms of philosophy, standard of coaching etc. Number of the girls represent England youth age groups and training camps, along with a couple of Wales and Irish internationals. Only have to compete with Brighton, Reading and Chelsea for local talent. (Pompey don't have an RTC but building a programme that's half decent).
You still have Southampton FC, Southampton Ladies and Girls and Southampton Womens.
