The Story of Zvezda-2005

The club is from the city of Perm. Its name comes from an older men's team, Zvezda Perm, which stopped playing in 1997. Zvezda-2005 had a fantastic start. In 2007, they won both the Russian league and the Russian Women's Cup.

After winning these titles, they played in the 2008-09 UEFA Women's Cup. This is a big European competition for women's football clubs. Zvezda-2005 did very well and reached the final match! However, they lost to a German team called Duisburg.

They continued their winning streak in Russia, taking home the Russian league title again in 2008 and 2009. This meant they won the league three times in a row! In 2010, they finished third, which meant they didn't get to play in the UEFA Women's Champions League that year.
