Női NB I

The Női NB I (Hungarian: Női Nemzeti Bajnokság, for women's national championship) is the top level women's football league in Hungary. Organized by the Hungarian Football Federation, it features 8 teams. The champion qualifies for a spot in the UEFA Women's Champions League.

Format

From 2007–08 to 2009–10 eight teams played two double round-robins (so 28 matches) to decide the champion.

For the 2010–11 season the league was extended to ten teams and a playoff system was adopted. After the regular season, which was reduced to a double round-robin tournament, the top 5 teams qualified for the championship playoff. At the start of the playoff the results against the teams failing to reach the championship playoff are subtracted. The five teams then play another double round-robin (for 8 additional matches) to crown the champion. The relegation playoff round works in the same way with the bottom five placed teams after the regular season.
