[12] On 8 March 2011, FC Utrecht became the third team (after AZ and Willem II)[13] to announce its withdrawal from the league for the next season due to financial reasons.

On 3 May 2011, the SEV and KNVB confirmed FC Utrecht as one of the six participants of the Eredivisie 2011–12 season,[17] where the team finished fourth.

[20][21] By the end of October, the Utrecht Women's Football Foundation (SVVU) which ran the club, could no longer meet its financial obligations and started to analyse the possibilities of continuing, even on an amateur basis.

During this period, the team had to meet its competition obligations, including an away match against Club Brugge on 24 January.

[26] After the appeal period expired, the SVVU was legally dissolved on 30 January, having played 16 matches and in 11th place in the standings.

[27][28][29][30] In July 2021, FC Utrecht was reportedly looking into restarting a women's team in the Eredivisie Vrouwen beginning in the 2023–24 season.
