The Women's Football Super League, also known as the Turkcell Women's Football Super League (Turkish: Türkcell Kadın Futbol Süper Ligi) for sponsorship reasons, is the top level women's football league of Turkey. In the 2023–24 season, 14 teams play a double round robin to decide a champion club, which qualifies for a spot in the UEFA Women's Champions League.
Formerly known as the First Women's Football League, the league was renamed to Turkcell Women's Super League (Turkish: Turkcell Kadın Süper Ligi) starting from the 2021–22 season, after a sponsorship agreement with the Turkish mobile phone operator Turkcell signed by the Turkish Football Federation on 8 March 2021, the International Women's Day.[1]
