Championnat National 1 A 1995/96
The 1995/96 season of the Championnat National 1 A was the 22nd edition of the French women's football championship since the official recognition of women's football by the French Football Association, the FFF , in 1970 and the first edition in the 1974/75 season . From 1992 to 2002, the national highest league was designated as Championnat National 1 A.
The previous year's champions of FC Lyon were unable to defend their title and finished the season only in mid-table. Instead, Juvisy FCF won its third French championship.
Qualification and mode of competition
For the eligibility to participate, only the performance of the women's teams in the previous season was taken into account. The teams that had taken one of the first nine places qualified as well as three promoted teams from the National 1 B Championship , the second division. These were:
- from the northeast: FCF Hénin-Beaumont , Juvisy FCF , JS Poissy , VGA Saint-Maur , promoted Olympique Saint-Memmie , ASPTT Strasbourg
- from the west: Newcomers US Le Mans , Chaffoteaux Sports Saint-Brieuc , ASJ Soyaux , Toulouse Olympique Aérospatial Club
- from the southeast: promoted SC Caluire Saint-Clair , defending champion FC Lyon
The championship was decided in a double round of points, in which each club competed in home and away games against each other. The three-point rule applied ; in the event of a tie, first the direct comparison and then, if necessary, the better overall goal difference was decisive. At the end of the season, the three bottom of the table had to be relegated and were replaced for the coming season by the group winners of the three second-class seasons.

Master Juvisy suffered two home defeats, but kept a clean slate away from home with nine wins and only two draws. For his clear lead over the women from Soyaux, in particular, their not exactly "championship-ready" record on the opposing places was partly responsible, which was expressed in the defeats of all the other top teams. The Bretons from Saint-Brieuc built a better performance especially in their home games, where they drew six times and only recorded four wins, while they left the field as winners in seven games away.
The zone at risk of relegation began this time already from sixth place, especially since it was only for Poissy early on - and even without the maximum point deduction due to the lack of infrastructure in the junior division - that the JSP would have to compete in the second division next season. While all three newcomers to the league were able to hold onto the class, the “postal athletes” from the Alsatian capital and the northern French from Hénin-Beaumont had to accompany Poissy. They were replaced for the following season by the newly promoted women from the National 1 B ; these were USO Bruay-Labuissière , ESOF La Roche and the women of the Marseilles suburb Celtic Beaumont .
