WFC Donchanka (Russian: Дончанка), also known as Donchanka TsPOR and Donechanka (Ukrainian: Донеччанка), was a Ukrainian women's football club from Donetsk. Donchanka was the leading Ukrainian club, holding the record for the most titles (up to 5) from 1995 to 2009.
The name of Donechanka was used in Ukrainian media and in official reports; at the same time, the name of Donchanka was used in the Russian media and on the club's shield. TsPOR is an acronym for the Training Center of the Olympic Reserve.
Founded in 1992 as Tekstilshchik Donetsk, it was renamed as Donetsk-Ros in 1994 before taking its current name in 1997. The women's team was created as part of FC Tekstilschik Donetsk, which existed at the Donetsk Cotton Factory and had other teams, including a men's team. The women's team became the most successful in the club. Donchanka was the leading Ukrainian team for much of the 1990s, winning five championships and four national cups between 1994 and 1999. In 1999, the club lost its sponsors and leading players, and it shifted to young, talented players. It was third in the 2012 championship, its best result since 2003.[1]
