Como 1907 (Italian pronunciation: [ˈkɔːmo]) is an Italian professional women's football club based in Como, Lombardy. The club competes in the Serie B, the second tier of Italian women's football system. Founded in 2020, it is the women's section of the homonymous professional football club.

History

In April 2020, Como 1907 decided to establish its own women's football section, initially with two teams, under 15 and under 17, entrusting its development to Elio Garavaglia, former youth coach of AC Milan and then technical assistant in Serie A at Palermo, but with a significant amount of experience also in women's soccer.[1]

Starting from the Promozione championship, the fifth and lowest level in the pyramid of the women's system, in the Lombardy group, the first team, made up of under 19 athletes, managed in its second season, winning Group A of the 2023-2024 edition,[2] to earn promotion to Eccellenza, a championship in which it obtained second place at the end of the 2024-2025 season.[3] In the summer of 2024, the club also announced the arrival of one of the most representative players of the US national team, Heather O'Reilly, to the technical staff.[4]

In view of the 2025-2026 season, Como 1907 has officially taken over the sporting title of ChievoVerona FM for participation in the Serie B championship,[5][6] thus making a double leap in category.[3]
