The Championnat de France de football féminin is a French women's football (soccer) competition that was resurrected in 1974 under the wing of the French Football Federation. Between 1918 and 1932 a similar competition was run by the FSFSF.

Competition

The league is competed by 12 teams that play each other once at home and once away, and at the end of the 22 matches, the top four battle it out in a playoff, the winner of which is named as the champion. The bottom two clubs are relegated into the lower league, replaced by two from the second division. Along with other French football competitions, four points are awarded for a win, two for a draw, and one for a defeat.
