Deportivo Alavés

Vitoria-Gasteiz gives its name to the men's side and, since 2017, to the women's team that carries the same crest and the same blue-and-white stripes. Deportivo Alavés Gloriosas took shape on 11 June that year, when the club absorbed the senior side of CD Gasteizko Neskak rather than building a section from nothing. The men had tried something similar once before, running a women's team with Club San Ignacio between 2010 and 2013, but that arrangement did not last.

Promotion to the Primera División Femenina came in 2020-21, after the Gloriosas won the northern group of the Segunda División Pro — the first time the women's team had reached Spain's top flight. For a fixture of that size they left the Ibaia training complex, their regular ground with room for about 2,500, and played at Mendizorroza instead.

Matches against Athletic Club draw the label Derbi Vasco, and Real Sociedad supplies the other end of the Basque rivalry. Alba Aznar has captained the side; Camila Sáez moved on to West Ham United, since no academy graduate of note has broken into the senior international game from Vitoria-Gasteiz.

The Copa de la Reina has stopped Alavés at the Round of 16 twice, in 2022-23 and again the following season, and the club has yet to get past that stage.
