In the 1992-93 season, when The FA took control of women's football, The FA Nationwide Women's Premier League Cup was born. Competed for by members of The FA Nationwide Women's Premier League, the League Cup has found a regular home at Highbury, home of Arsenal ladies. The north London club having won it an impressive six times, including the first season, beating Knowsley 3-0.
Having only been out of London for day trips to the finals, at grounds such as Chester's Deva Stadium, the cup has spent time in the cabinets of Wimbledon, Wembley and Millwall.
In the 2001/2002 final Birmingham City had an opportunity to take it outside of the M25 for a year, but were completely out-gunned at Wycombe Wanderer's Adams Park by an on-form Fulham side who cracked seven past the dazed Blues.
Birmingham did manage to get one, but it was not enough to prevent Fulham's new professionals grabbing the prize - before adding The FA Women's Cup and FA Women's Premier League Southern Division titles later that season.
Fulham kept a tight hold on The FA Nationwide Premier League Cup 2003 when they beat Arsenal on penalties. The game at Swindon Town's County Ground finished 1-1 after late goals from Rachel Yankey and Ciara Grant and it was left the Fulham's Kim Jerray-Silver to score the decisive spot kick.
