Women's Premier League
When the Women's Premier League was formed in 2009, Beantown RFC was one of eight teams that kicked-off the inaugural season. In 2010, a Division 3 team was created and they won their inaugural season. The Division 3 side was then promoted to Division 2 in 2011 and competed alongside their WPL side at Nationals in 2012.
From 2014 to 2016, the teams were merged into one team to compete in Division 1 for 2017.
