The AFFA Top Girls League (Azerbaijani: AFFA Yüksək Qızlar Liqası) is the highest level of league competition in women's football in Azerbaijan.[1]
The league was played out from 2003[2] for some years. After that there first were no leagues and then only youth (U15, U17) ones.[3]
The winning team of the league qualified for a spot in the UEFA Women's Cup. Gömrükçü Baku has represented Azerbaijan five times from 2002–03 to 2006–07 and reached a quarter-final. Ruslan-93 Baku played the Women's Cup in 2007–08.
The first season after the hiatus was held in 2016/17 with Gabala FK winning the title. Sumgayit FK would win the next title before the league would return to a hiatus. It appears to have run for half a season in 2021–22, but no further information is available.[4]
