Odense Boldklub Q (commonly referred to as OB Q) is a Danish women's football team based in Odense, Denmark. OB Q compete in A-Liga, the Danish top-flight division and play their matches at the Nature Energy Park stadium.
The team was founded in 1971 as the women's football section of Odense Boldklub. The team played in non-league and in 1982 they were promoted to the Women's Series, the fourth tier (then the third tier) of the Danish women's football system. In 1989, the team secured promotion into the league for the first time as they entered the 1st Division in 1990. OB were promoted into the top division, The Elite Division (as it was known then) for the first time in 1993. After losing the 1995 Danish Women's Cup final to Fortuna Hjørring, the team gained revenge in 1998 by beating Fortuna in the final and securing their first Cup win. Odense also won the Cup in 1999 and 2003, and the league title in 2000 and 2001.[1]
Due to a lack of support from Odense Boldklub, the team decided to break away and form an independent women's football club under the name Odense Q from the 2016–17 Elitedivisionen season onwards.[2] A new logo was created, inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's The Ugly Duckling.[3] The team played in a Bordeaux red jersey.
In June 2023 the club, alongside Odense Boldklub, announced the 90% purchase of Odense Q by Odense Sport & Event, joining the women's and men's team once again. The club was renamed Odense Boldklub Q.[4] The purchase came a little over six months following the November 2022 announcement by UEFA that the license to participate in any of the three European competitions would only be afforded to men's clubs that had a women's branch setup from the 2024–2025 season.[5]
In July 2025 the club announced that the international player contingent would depart the club, citing an approach to building the squad under the moniker, "IdentitetOB".[6][7][8]
