History

The first edition was held in 2005, organised by Pakistan Football Federation (PFF).

On 4 August 2010, Pakistan Football Federation president Faisal Saleh Hayat dedicated the Best Player Award of the National Women Football Championship to Misha Dawood, the late Diya W.F.C. midfielder. Misha had been on the ill-fated Airblue Flight 202 which crashed in the Margalla Hills on 28 July 2010.[5]

Due to the political and judicial crisis of 2015 at the PFF, the championship was not held from 2015 to 2018.

The 2021 edition was cancelled, no official reason was given, but the decision took place after the Pakistan Football Federation's office was attacked and people inside held hostage by its former president, Syed Ashfaq Hussain Shah, and his group.[6] The championship was interrupted before the knockout stage started.

Format

The number of teams participating has varied through the years. In the first edition, 8 teams took part. In the 2018 edition, 16 teams participated in the tournament, with three departmental teams, four provincial teams, four regional teams and five club teams, divided into four groups, winner of each group will earn a spot in semi-finals.[7]

For the 2021 competition, 20 teams divided into four groups were originally supposed to participate in 59 scheduled matches, but one of them withdrew before the tournament commenced.

The upcoming 2024 National Women Football Championship is expected to include only club sides, excluding the departmental teams which would not be able to take part from now on.[8][9]
