FCF Como 2000 is an Italian football club from Como, currently playing in Serie A, the national league's top division of women football.

Founded in 1991 as a section of Polisportiva Vigor Grandate, it became an independent club taking its current name in 1997. The following year Como was promoted to Serie B, and in 2001 it reached Serie A for the first time. In its debut season Como tightly avoided relegation; as it ended tied in points with second-to-last ACF Gravina a play-off had to be played, which Como won 3-2. The team improved the next season, ranking 10th seven points over relegation. However in 2004 the team earned just 13 points and was relegated.

The return to the second category was not easy with FCF Como tightly avoiding the relegation play-off. Como gradually consolidated itself and from 2009 it began applying for promotion with a 3rd spot. After a disappointing 2010 season, in 2011 Como tied in the top of the table with ACF Milan. A play-off was played to determine what team promoted, which Milan won 0-1. However, in August AC Reggiana was excluded from Serie A and Como was chosen to take its place.[1]
