Bosnia and Herzegovina Women's Premier League


Bosnia and Herzegovina Women's Premier League is the top level women's football league of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since 2013 the league has been unified. Before it was played in two separate groups based on league systems confined within Bosnia's entities, one being the First Women's League of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the other First Women's League of the Republika Sprska, with the champion being decided through play-offs.
The winner of the play-off qualifies for a spot in the UEFA Women's Champions League.
The league draws little media attention in Bosnia and Herzegovina, while the funding is often inadequate and clubs lack infrastructure, in some cases even basic training facilities.

History

Until 2013 the league was divided into the NFSBiH league and the league of the Republic of Srpska. The best two teams of the NFSBiH league qualified for a play-off in which the champion of the Republika Sprska women's football championship joined. The venue for the play-off was decided beforehand and it was played as three-team group.

Format

The teams play a double round robin after which the two best-placed teams advance to 3 team play-off group with the best placed club from Republika Srpska.
In 2014/15 eight teams play a triple round-robin for 21 matches in total.
