History edit

Founded in 1995, the club finished as the runner-up in the Botswana Women's Championship in 1998 before winning the next three editions. When the Botswana championship resumed in 2005, the club clinched nine consecutive titles before relinquishing its crown to Township Rollers in 2015.[1]

In 2021, the club represented Botswana in the inaugural edition of the CAF Women's Champions League, replacing Prisons XI after their withdrawal due to financial reasons.[2] The club reached the semifinals of the zonal tournament of the COSAFA (Council of Southern Africa Football Associations). In the following season, as the championship resumed after several years of interruption, Double Action secured their thirteenth title by defeating the Mexican Girls in the final (4-2).[3]
