The Superliga is the top level women's football league in Romania. The champion team qualifies for UEFA Women's Champions League.
The top league was named Liga I until the 2012–13 season. The league-system was restructured for the 2013–14 season. Eight teams play in the league, with two being relegated to the second level league, which is the Liga I.
Format
Eight teams play each other twice. After that the top four teams play the championship play-off. The bottom four play a relegation play-off. The last two places in the relegation play-off get relegated.[1]
History
In the 1990s and 2000s, because there were only few women's football clubs in Romania, all clubs played in the only league. With more clubs joining, the league was split into East and West divisions for the 2011–12 season. Teams played each other twice with the top two teams advancing to the championship round. In 2012–13 the teams where split into three divisions. After that again the top two teams each advanced to the championship round. Points from the regular season were reset to zero for that round.
