Toulouse OAC settled in the top positions of the French First Division in the second half of the 90s and soon became a powerhouse, winning four championships in a row between 1999 and 2002. It was the first team to achieve this since the league's unification in 1992.[1] The latter was their most successful season, as they also won the national Cup and reached the semifinals of the UEFA Women's Cup after topping its group and beating Arsenal FC.[2] The following year Toulouse was defeated by eventual champions Umeå IK in the quarterfinals.[3]
However, Toulouse gradually declined in the following years and was relegated in 2011. It managed to climb back to the flight in the 2026–27 season.
