Competition format
[edit]Structure
[edit]As of the 2024 season, there are 14 teams in the Super League, and they will be drawn into 2 separate groups of 7 teams. During the course of a season, each team plays the others once at the centralized venue of Radia Arena. The top eight teams will advance to the playoffs, while the bottom six teams will advance to the FAS Women's Confederations Cup. Teams are ranked by total points, then goal difference, and then goals scored. If still equal, teams are deemed to occupy the same position. The top eight teams will start in the quarterfinal round, with the team having the highest points in the group stage receiving the highest seed in the draw. The team that wins the playoff final will be crowned the Super League champions.[2]
There is no relegation or promotion system in the league. Teams enter the Super League by invitation of the Football Association of Selangor.
