is a women's football club based in Sakai and Osaka, Osaka. The team currently plays in the WE League, the top division of women's football in Japan.

History

Cerezo Osaka, which has been playing in the J.League since 1995, established a women's class at its school in 2005 to strengthen women's football, and formed a women's team as Cerezo Osaka Ladies U-15 in 2010. The team later changed its name to Cerezo Osaka Ladies in 2012. The following year, the team entered the Japan Women's Soccer League, adopting the name of its hometown, Sakai, as well as Osaka, and changing its name to Cerezo Osaka Sakai Ladies.

In 2021, Japan's first professional women's soccer league, the WE League, was established, but Cerezo Osaka Sakai Ladies avoided participating due to the fact that most of their players were students. However, with many promising players deciding to move on, they made preparations to join, and on September 14, 2022, they were approved to join the WE League for the 2023-24 season.

On February 24, 2023, Cerezo Osaka Sakai Ladies announced that the team would change its name to Cerezo Osaka Yanmar Ladies after Yanmar acquired the naming rights.
