The 2010–11 season was French football club Paris Saint-Germain's 12th season in Division 1 Féminine and their 10th consecutive season in the top division of French football. Paris Saint-Germain was managed by Camillo Vaz - in his second season since replacing Éric Leroy. The club was chaired by Pierre Noguès. Paris Saint-Germain was present in the 2010–11 Division 1 Féminine and the 2010–11 Challenge de France. Christophe Dedouche replaced Karine Noilhan as assistant coach. During the summer, the face of the team changed slightly. Three players left the capital club: Ingrid Boyeldieu, Émilie L'Huillier and Stéphanie Hoffele. Montpellier's Léa Rubio and Montigny's Léa Le Garrec, both champions with France in the 2010 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, signed for Paris Saint-Germain. Charlotte Lozè, also from Montpellier, joined former Lyon striker Kátia at the club. As seen in Zohra Ayachi's words, Paris Saint-Germain was aiming for a second place in the league to dispute the UEFA Women's Champions League next season:

The goal is simple for us: finish between the first two in the league in order to dispute the European Cup next year. We narrowly missed qualifying last season and we do not want to repeat it again. Play the European Cup would be a nice reward for the group and for the club.
