Background
Manchester City were formed in 1988, though they did not join an organised competition until the following year when they were admitted to the North West Women's Regional Football League. The club would make steady progress upwards until the season, when they would take the Premier League Northern Division title and were promoted to the WPL National, then the highest level of semi-pro football attainable in England, and only below the closed shop FA WSL. City were admitted to the WSL in 2014, coinciding with their decision to turn professional, and the move would ultimately be rewarded with their first senior silverware the same season.
