Esporte Clube Bahia, commonly known as Bahia or the Mulheres de Aço, is a Brazilian women's Association football club, based in the city of Salvador, Bahia. It is the women's section of Esporte Clube Bahia. They won the Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol Feminino Série A2 once.

History

[edit]

Founded in 1989, Bahia won the Campeonato Baiano de Futebol Feminino in their first active year. They were also crowned champions in the subsequent two seasons, before becoming inactive.

Bahia returned to an active status in November 2018, after establishing a partnership with Lusaca [pt], to comply with the regulations of the Profut.[1] They ended the partnership with Lusaca after the Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol Feminino Série A2, and subsequently won the Baiano again.[2]

Bahia achieved promotion to the Campeonato Brasileiro de Futebol Feminino Série A1 in 2020 and 2022, but suffered relegations in the subsequent year. In 2024, they won the Série A2 for the first time in their history.[3][4]
