Aerion Women's Football Club is an amateur soccer club based in the north-east of Singapore. The club was established in 2005 by a group of 5 footballers who wanted to promote women's football in Singapore.[1] Aerion participates as Still Aerion in the Women's Premier League and as Royal Arion in the Women's National League.
The first Singapore's all-women football club[2] fields teams in the Women's Premier League, Women's Challenge Cup, Women's National League and Women's Youth League for the women's and girl's competitions.
The name Arion was derived from a character in Greek mythology. Arion was Hercules' war stallion. He served the hero bravely and even saved him from death. He was later mastered by Adrastus, who, thanks to Arion was the only one to survive the war called the Seven Against Thebes.[3]
Arion has adopted 'Better, Stronger, Braver' as its motto, based on the Greek areion (ἀρείων).[4]
Thailand national footballers Orapin Waenngoen, Sunisa Srangthaisong, Pikul Khueanpet and Waraporn Boonsing signed for Women's National League team Royal Arion in August 2023. With the Thai league finishing at the end of July, the players could not be registered for Still Aerion, who play in the top-tier Women's Premier League.[5]
Royal Aerion clinched their first WNL title by beating Mattar Sailors in the final on 15 October 2023.[6] Royal Arion became the fifth winner in as many editions of the WNL, following Changi Village SRC (2017), Tampines Changkat CSC (2018), Tanjong Pagar United (2019), and Police Sports Association (2022). Orapin’s stunning 35-goal tally secured her the title of the top scorer.[7]
