Superliga Ecuatoriana de Fútbol Femenino, also commonly known as Superliga Femenina, is the highest league of women's football in Ecuador, organized by the Ecuadorian Football Federation. Since its founding in 2019, the league has been contested for six years and five different clubs have won the league title.
History Background
In 2013, the first national amateur women's football championship endorsed by the FEF was organized. None of these 16 participating clubs belonged to or were subsidiaries of the Ecuadorian Serie A men's clubs. They are teams that have been carrying out this activity at the neighborhood or amateur level for 15 and even 20 years, there is no exact date.
Formation In 2019, the FEF created the Women's Football Commission to be in charge of the creation of a new professional women's football league which included the participation of the Serie A teams from Ecuador. In this tournament, the teams will be able to register players in a professional manner, although it is not an obligation that the entire teams are to be.
Sponsorship On 29 August 2019, the Ecuadorian Football Federation reached an agreement with DirecTV for the transmission of the final stage of the 2019 season.
