The 2011 FA WSL Cup was the first edition of the FA WSL's league cup competition. It was sponsored by Continental AG, who sponsored the competition from its creation, and officially known as the FA WSL Continental Tyres Cup. All eight teams of the WSL contested the competition.

The inaugural season of the competition was played as a straight knock-out tournament. Arsenal won the cup with a 4–1 victory over Birmingham. Arsenal also won the league and Women's FA Cup, thus completing a domestic treble that season.[1][2][3]
