The Dublin Women's Soccer League (DWSL) is an association football league featuring women's teams from the Greater Dublin Area. It was founded in 1994 from a merger of the Leinster Ladies' League and the Civil Service League. Between 1994 and 2006 it was the de facto top level national league for women's association football in the Republic of Ireland.[1] The DWSL remains one of the largest women's leagues in Ireland. It operates in summer, with games played from May until September. There are Premier and Major Divisions, as well as seven intermediate divisions.[2]
