BFA to introduce women national league

The women’s league football is currently played at regional level in the country. In 2016, the BFA dismantled the then, Super League which was mainly contested by teams in the South.

Since the move, the women’s game has spread throughout the country as league football is played in all the BFA blocks in exception of the Western block. Speaking at the launch of the DTCB Women’s Championship playoffs, the BFA chief executive officer Mfolo Mfolo said the association is in a position to introduce the national league after an increase of participation in the women’s game. The number of teams in the leagues has risen from 47 to 132 in just two seasons while the leagues have increased from six to 11.
