[1] The Spanish Girl's Club was created in 1914, spearheaded by the former RCD Espanyol and FC Barcelona footballer Paco Bru.

[3] A 1960 report suggested that the club was a joint venture of FC Barcelona through Jack Greenwell and RCD Espanyol through Bru.

Despite being a small football association, it was well organised and had its own headquarters, at the Barcelona premises of L'Amistat company on Consell de Cent Street.

[6] The club was immediately controversial – later reported as what would be expected of Spain at the time – with press reactions ranging from shock and sympathy to machismo and misogyny.

[4] Despite becoming popular and playing well enough that one sports paper said they would soon be able to compete with men's second or youth teams,[10] Spanish Girl's Club did not last long.

[6] Bru reportedly made the sarcastic comment that, after Belgium, the Spanish Girl's Club was the first victim of World War I.
