In their debut season, they won the second division and achieved promotion to the Women’s Premiership for the 1990\u201391 season. The team then claimed their first silverware at the national sevens tournament in 1990, and earned a total of 17 trophies over the ensuing decade, including domestic trebles in 1993 and 1998.[2]Historically, the club has held rivalries with fellow London sides Richmond, Wasps and, in more recent years, Harlequins.[3] In 2006, Saracens won the Women’s Premiership. In 2007 they retained their title by going unbeaten through the league season.[4] In 2005, Saracens Ladies II had points deducted for fielding an underage and unregistered player.[5] In 2007, Saracens Ladies II finished second in the league after losing their final game against Bath Ladies after having been unbeaten until that match.[6]In recent times, Saracens have won the Premier 15s competition in 2018, 2019 and 2022.
