Football Club Thy-Thisted Q is a Danish women's football club based in Thisted, Denmark. The club competes in the B-Liga, the second tier of the Danish Women's Football League, and play their home matches at Sparekassen Thy Arena. The team was previously part of Thisted FC.

FC Thy-Thisted Q was created in 2017 as a superstructure between the following five clubs: Koldby Hørdum IF, Nors B, IF Nordthy, Frøstrup Hannæs IF and Thisted FC.[1] They were promoted to the top tier, A-Liga, in 2018 and qualified for the Championship round, in their first season.[2]

History

In July 2026 the club announced announced a sudden cut in the budget for the women's team, while the men's team remain unaffected, citing financial issues in running the club. The cuts include no longer offering contracts to players that ensure benefits and minimum wage.[3][4] There were reports that the players had unknowingly played without being told the contracts were not registered with the Danish Football Association, which the club refuted.[5] Club stalwart Saustrup Kristensen announced her retirement of her active playing career in August 2026, after speaking out against the budget cuts, citing her retirement as a direct result of the club's actions.[6][7] Team captain Michelle Sandfeld announced in August 2026 her decision to put her playing career on hold after seven years with the club, citing the club's actions as well.[8]
