Victoria Highlanders Women is a Canadian women's soccer team based in Victoria, British Columbia. The team was founded in 2001 and in 2010 the team was re-branded from the existing PCSL premier women's team, the Victoria Stars FC, and adopted by the Victoria Highlanders FC. The Victoria Stars were operated by the Victoria Women's Soccer Society, had red and white team colors, and competed in the PCSL premier women division from 2001 to 2009. The Highlanders Women competed in the PCSL premier women division in 2010. The women Highlanders joined the USL W-League in 2011, the second tier of women’s soccer in the United States and Canada. The team played in the Western Conference against the Colorado Force, Colorado Rush, LA Strikers, Pali Blues, Santa Clarita Blue Heat, Seattle Sounders Women and Vancouver Whitecaps. In 2013 due to the travel costs and Vancouver Whitecaps women dropping out of the league, the Highlanders Women returned to the PCSL.

From 2011-2012, the Victoria Highlanders Women played its W-League home games at Bear Mountain Stadium at City Centre Park in nearby Langford, British Columbia. The team's 2010-2011 colours were white, black and gold. In 2013 the team colours have returned to red and white with a Highlanders triskele crest and the team plays primarily at Tyndall Turf.

The team is a sister organization of the men's Victoria Highlanders team, which plays in the USL Premier Development League. There is a PCSL reserve division or U21 team fielded by the Highlanders affiliate Mid Isle Soccer Club named the Mid Isle Highlanders.
