The Hong Kong Women League (Chinese: 香港女子聯賽) is a Hong Kong football league for women's association football clubs. It was originally established in 1986 by the Hong Kong Ladies Football Association, but was re-formed and is now organised by the Hong Kong Football Association. It does not affiliate to any women football leagues in the rest of China.

History

Established in 1986 by the Hong Kong Ladies Football Association, the first season was competed by 6 teams, with Caroline Hill Women winning the title. However, since the association is not well-structured, the league was organised badly.

In 2009, after Hong Kong won the gold medal in the 2009 East Asian Games, the Hong Kong government announced and introduced the Project Phoenix which suggested that the Hong Kong Football Association should introduce a new and structured women league.

In 2012, the HKFA introduced the new Hong Kong Women League with 10 teams competing for the league title.

In 2018, the HKFA introduced the two-tier system for the Hong Kong Women League, with 8 teams competing in the First Division and 6–7 teams competing in the Second Division.
