Club Deportivo Formas Íntimas are a Colombian women's football club based in Medellín. As there is no professional women's league in Colombia, the club is affiliated to the Liga Antioqueña de Fútbol.[1]

History

The club was founded officially in 2002 by the clothing company Formas Íntimas, however they competed in the Liga Antioqueña de Fútbol since 2001, officially joining in 2003.

The club's first great achievement was to represent Colombian football in the inaugural 2009 Copa Libertadores de Fútbol Femenino.[2][3][4] The club earned this right after the Federación Colombiana de Fútbol determined that they are the most representative women's club, due to their success in all levels of the Colombia women's national football team and in their achievements in the Torneo de la Feria de las Flores.[5][6]

Formas Íntimas finished second in Group B, behind Universidad Autónoma of Paraguay, thereby proceeding to the semifinals, where they lost 5–0 to eventual champions Santos of Brazil. Formas Íntimas then defeated Everton of Chile 2–0 to capture the third place.

Formas Íntimas were eliminated in the group stage of the 2010 Copa Libertadores Group A's bottom team. In the 2011 edition the team was second in Group C, which was not enough to qualify for the semifinals.
