The women's bandy section was started in 2004, taking over Nässjö IF's women's bandy team. The IFK Nässjö women's bandy team won the Swedish national championship in 2009, and lost the national final in 2008 and 2010. All three final games were played against AIK.[3] The U-17 girls bandy team also won the Swedish national championship during the seasons of 2004-2005 and 2005-2006.[4]

On 23 August 2011 the club announced its withdrawal from the Swedish women's bandy top division following lack of players.[5]
