Wikipedia - NWFL Premiership
The NWFL Premiership (formerly Nigeria Women Premier League) is the top-level league for women's association football in Nigeria. It is the women's equivalent of the men's league, the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL). The Nigeria Women Football League (NWFL) organizes the Nigeria Women Premier League and the Nigeria Women Pro-league. In November 2017, Aisha Falode was elected chairperson of the league board, and was officially designated in January 2017.
History
Women's football in Nigeria started in 1978 with the foundation of the NIFFOA (Nigeria Female Football Organising Association), renamed NIFFPA (Nigeria Female Football Proprietors Associations) in 1979, and joined by clubs like Jegede Babes, Ufuoma Babes, Larry Angels, Kakanfo Babes and others. The first championship was organised by the NFA in 1990. Ufuoma Babes were dominant in the 1990s, before succumbing to Pelican Stars, who won the league between 1997 and 2002. By the 2010s, Rivers Angels became more frequent in the super tournaments, a mini tournament held annually among the top placed teams, to determine the overall winner for the league. Despite the high frequency of the abridged format over the years, the 2014 league season saw a straight round robin season in determining the league winners, however by 2015, there was a reintroduction of the group system.
Die Nigerianische Frauenliga ist die höchste Spielklasse im nigerianischen Frauenfußball. Die Liga wurde 1990 gegründet und besteht aus zwölf Mannschaften, die in einer Doppelrunde gegeneinander antreten. Der Meister qualifiziert sich für die CAF Women's Champions League, während die beiden letztplatzierten Mannschaften in die zweite Liga absteigen.
Die erfolgreichste Mannschaft in der Geschichte der Liga ist Pelican Stars FC mit acht Meistertiteln. Die derzeitige Meistermannschaft ist Rivers Angels FC.
Die Nigerianische Frauenliga ist eine der stärksten Frauenligen in Afrika. Die Mannschaften der Liga sind regelmäßig bei internationalen Wettbewerben vertreten.
