Home to the top two pro leagues in England
The Barclays Women’s Super League (BWSL) and Barclays Women’s Super League 2 (BWSL2) are the top two professional women’s football leagues in England, with the Barclays WSL boasting more FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023 players than any other league in the world. Both leagues are made up of 12 clubs, and the teams all play each other twice each season.
The 2025-26 season runs from September to May, and at the end of each season, the top three teams from the Barclays WSL qualify for the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
