The Maltese First Division is the top level women's football league of Malta.
After several failed attempts in the 1970s and 80s to create a lasting women's football competition, successful tournaments of San Gwann and Luxol St. Andrews gained enough interest, that the Malta Football Association decided to organize the first ever league in 1995-96.
The most titles were won by Hibernians.
Although the winning team of the league qualifies for a spot in the UEFA Women's Champions League, the spot isn't always taken. Malta currently sits at the last spot in the UEFA coefficients women's ranking[1] and the last club to take part was Birkirkara in 2007–08; Birkirkana lost all three games with 1–37 goals. In 09–10 they competed againg and ended up with three losses and 1-26 goals.
