The Women's Premier League (WPL) is the top-flight women's football league in Singapore. It is run by the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) and features nine teams.
The WPL started in August 2000.[1] In 2004, in a similar move to S.League, the WPL invited a foreign team to join the league. Guangzhou Sunray Cave from China joined the WPL.[2]
FAS announced that the league will be reorganised to form a two-division structure from 2017. The 2017 Women’s Premier League consisted of the teams that finished in the top six of the 2016 edition, while the new Women’s National League (WNL) was made up of teams that finished in the 7th-11th positions, along with any new teams.[3] The champions of WNL 2017 will be promoted to WPL 2018, while the last placed team of WPL will be relegated to WNL. The second-last placed team of the WPL will play against the runners-up of the WNL in a playoff.[3]
In 2019, the WPL had 10 teams.[4] During the COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore, the WPL was suspended.[4] On 28 May 2022, the WPL resumed competition.[5]
On 21 February 2025, the A-League Women’s team Brisbane Roar announced that they will embark its first-ever overseas tour[6] to Singapore, under partnership with FAS. During this five-day tour, they conducted junior football clinics, community engagement events, as well as an exhibition match against the best of the WPL.[7]
Sponsorship
On 4 May 2022, Deloitte became the title sponsor for the WPL for three years, renaming the league as the Deloitte Women's Premier League. The three-year sponsorship deal includes more than $300,000, with the prize money for the champion increased to $25,000.[1]
