History
Women's football clubs in Changchun traces back to the 1980s, with several schools and factories creating women's football clubs.[2][3] An important event happened in 1986, when several teams, including Changchun, played a precedent of the current Super League,[4] gaining the title.[5]
The Changchun team, with players including the national team's captain Wang Lili,[6] and players such as Li Yanjie, Wu Xinxin, Lu Haijing and Geng Yan, had great performances in those early tournaments.[7]
In 1999 the Changchun Huaxin team was officially created with Wang Lili as manager and players such as Lou Xiaoxu.[6]
