Award Winning Women's Soccer
The Ottawa Fury name has become synonymous with spectacular women's soccer, and fans all across Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec know that their team is one of the best in the world. Ranked as high as 7th in the Women's World Football Top Teams list, the Ottawa Fury Women have complied an astounding 88-17-6 record in seven seasons. Four appearances in the W-League Final Four and two in the W-League Championship match in five years has firmly established the Fury as one of the premier teams in North American women's soccer.
In 2008, the Fury finished the regular season with only one loss, winning the Northern Division title and qualifying for the playoffs for an incredible seventh season in a row. A first round victory led to a tough overtime loss to the Indiana Lionesses in the Eastern Conference Finals, marking only the third time in their history that the Fury have failed to qualify for the W-League Final Four. The team sported a division-best record of 13-1-0 with 51 goals for and only 7 against, with thirteen different players gracing the scoresheet. Ashly Kennedy won All-Conference honours and Shay Powell was awarded a spot on the W-League All-League team for their outstanding efforts during the season.

Along with a host of team awards, Ottawa Fury players have won their share of individual awards, including the 2004 W-League Player of the Year trophy that went to Kelly Parker. Parker, a five year veteran of the Fury squad, was one of only three Canadians drafted by the new Women's Professional Soccer League. Sixteen Fury players have played for Canada at the U-20 or National Team level. Five former Fury players competed on 2007 World Cup teams, Rhian Wilkinson, Diana Matheson, Robyn Gayle and Taryn Swiatek playing for Canada and Faye White on the England side. |

| The W-League represents the highest level of Women's Soccer in North America with many of the best female players in the world participating. In each of the past six years, the Fury squad has qualified for the playoffs reaching the North American Championship Finals twice (2005 & 2006) only to fall short to New Jersey and Vancouver respectively; the North American Championship Final Four 4 times (2003-2006) finishing 4th in 2003 and 3rd in 2004. The Fury's W-League team has been ranked as high as 7th in the world by www.womensworldfootball.com. In 2006, the team included 12 players who had played for Canadian national teams, and five members of Canada's World Cup squad. This season (2008) brought a new look to the squad with a new Head Coach, Craig Smith, and a vast array of talent from across the United State and Europe. After winning their division for a 5th consecutive season with a record of 13-1-0 they defeated the Chicago Gaels in the Conference Semi-Finals (3-2) only to fall to the expansion FC Indiana Lionesses 4-3 in overtime. The team's regular season record over the past six seasons has amassed to 71-6-3 (best in the W-League).
