The club was founded in 2010 as a youth soccer club when local clubs Goulbourn Soccer Club and Kanata Soccer Club decided to merge to form the West Ottawa Soccer Club.[3]

The club joined the women's division of League1 Ontario for the 2017 season[4][5] becoming the first team in the league from Ottawa.[6] They played their first match against Vaughan Azzurri losing 2-1.[7][8] They left the league following the 2018 season.[9]
