The team play in the same kit as worn by the men's team to represent equality and value across both disciplines. As with the men's team, the home and away kits are sponsored by Workhorse Group for the 2023/24 season.

History

After a ten-year absence of a women's football team at Colchester following the folding of Colchester United L.F.C., Colchester United Football in the Community unveiled plans to reform a women's team in time for the 2023/24 season in May 2023. Trials were held at Shrub End Sports Ground over three consecutive weeks, with successful players being informed of their position on July 6th. The founding of Colchester United W.F.C was confirmed at CUFC's Annual Open Day held at the Colchester Community Stadium on Sunday 16th July along with the appointment of Luke Worley as head coach.

A meeting was held later in the month for the team to be introduced and for Worley to unveil his coaching team.

Pre-season friendlies took place during August 2023 with the first match of the season taking place against Chelmsford City Reserves on Sunday 10th September, The U's winning 11-0.

Despite originally planning to host matches at their Shrub End training ground, it was announced on 12th September 2023 that their new home ground would be at Colchester Garrison B ground[1], with full access to the covered seating area and clubhouse before and after matches.
