Rome Sport Association), commonly referred to as simply Roma ([ˈroːma]) or Roma Femminile ([ˈroːma femmiˈnile]) and Roma Women, is an Italian women's association football club based in Rome, section of the homonymous professional football club. It was established in 2018 by acquiring the Serie A license of SSD Res Roma. The team competes in Serie A and debuted in 2018–19 league season.

History

Res Roma competed in the Serie A since 2003 but chose to hand over their competition license at the end of the 2017–18 Serie A season, allowing A.S. Roma to take over the license and begin life as a club in the top tier. The team won the Serie A in the 2022–23, 2023–24 and 2025–26 seasons.

The club conquered its first major trophy in the 2020-21 season when Roma won the 2021 Coppa Italia.As Roma Women went on to win the 2024 and 2026 Coppa Italia. Betty Bavagnoli worked as the club's head coach during the first three seasons of A.S. Roma's existence, later taking up the job of Head of Women's Football at the club. She was succeeded as head coach of the Roma senior squad by Alessandro Spugna. The club's first-ever captain is Italian and Roman defender Elisa Bartoli. The first ever Coppa Italia Women won by AS Roma was played the 30th of May 2021, against Milan, where the "Giallorosse" tied in normal time, then winning on penalties.

Roma won its first Serie A title on 29 April 2023, after a 2–1 victory over Fiorentina.

The following year, Roma won the domestic double, securing the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia. In the 2025–26 season, Roma won another domestic double, securing the Serie A title and the Coppa Italia.
