History
Karbo Deportivo (1983–1988)

Deportivo entered in the women's football in the winter of 1983–84 after absorbing Karbo C.F. and changing its name to Karbo Deportivo[1][2] completely integrated into the structure of Deportivo de A Coruña, also using the colors and shield of Deportivo. The original club was named for its founders, Ramón Carrasco and Mari Carmen Borrego.[3] The team won the first official women's football competitions in Spain (the current Copa de la Reina, called Spanish Championship before the foundation of the women's football league) until 1985.[4]
The section was dissolved in 1988 due to the economic problems that the R.C. Deportivo, plunged into a suffocating debt and with the men's team on the verge of relegation to Segunda División B, as well as an increase in expenses for the increasing professionalization of women's football, a year before Superliga was created.
2016–present: recovery of the women's section
On 16 March 2016, Deportivo announced the recovery of the women's club section.[5][6] The new club started playing its first season in Segunda División, after an agreement with local team Orzán SD Deportivo to occupy his place forming a stronger Galician team, and in its debut as Deportivo Femenino ended as runner-up of the Group 1. In the 2017/18 season the team was renamed Deportivo ABANCA after an agreement with the bank for 4 years.[7]
After three years, on 19 May 2019, Deportivo achieved promotion to Primera División for the first time ever.[8]
Their first season in the Primera División was cut short on 8 May 2020, due to the RFEF choosing to suspend non-professional football during the COVID-19 pandemic. With this cancellation, they finished the season with an unprecedented fourth place.[9] In the 2021–22 season, Depor finished 15th was relegated to the Segunda División Pro.[10]
