The Saint Albans Spurs were a Women's Australian rules football club from the Victorian Women's Football League who also competed in both the VWFL and reserves competition. The club also fielded a team in the Youth Girls Competition.

They were founded in 1993 by Debbie Lee who has become a significant figure in the progression and success of women's AFL.

In 2015 the club was rebranded and relocated to Footscray, obtaining a sponsorship by the Maribyrnong City Council and Victoria University and were renamed the VU Western Spurs. They now have a very strong community and professional partnership with the AFL and AFLW club the Western Bulldogs.
