Championnat National 1 A 2000/01
The 2000/01 season of the Championnat National 1 A was the 27th edition of the French women's football championship since the official recognition of women's football by the FFF, the French Football Association , in 1970 and the first edition in the 1974/75 season . The Championnat National 1 A was pure League mode in a group consisting of a single group, twelve-team france wide highest league discharged. The French soccer players were officially pure amateurs at the time.
The previous winners of the Toulouse Olympique aérospatial club could repeat their success and thus won their third league title in a row.
Qualification and mode of competition
For the right to participate, only the performance in the previous season was taken into account; Qualified were the nine best-placed women's teams of the previous year as well as three climbers from the second division, which is divided into three regional groups (Championnat National 1 B) . Thus, the first division this season included the following participants:
- from the northeast: Juvisy FCF , Olympique Saint-Memmie , promoted SC Schiltigheim
- from the west: Entente Sportive Cormelles-le-Royal , ESOF La Roche , Stade Quimper , Saint-Brieuc FF , ASJ Soyaux
- from the south: FC Lyon , the renamed newcomer Celtic Marseille (formerly Celtic Beaumont), Entente Montpellier Le Crès , defending champion Toulouse OAC
The championship consisted of two phases. First, a double round of points was played, in which each club competed in home and away games against each other. The " modified three-point rule " , which was common in French amateur football into the 21st century, applied with four points for a win, two for a draw and one for a defeat won on the field; 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.
The women in ranks one to four determined the final title winner in a subsequent play-off round. This “championship round” consisted of only one encounter of each of the participating teams against each other. The points from the first phase were not taken away, only the first and second placed there received two or one bonus point, and these two teams also had two home games in the championship round, while the third and fourth placed only one each.

At the top of the table were the same four teams as in the previous year, with Juvisy and Toulouse - unbeaten in front of their own audience and each with only two draws - were able to clearly set themselves apart from their opponents. The midfield, in which the Alsatian climber Schiltigheim also finished, was led by Saint-Memmie. Behind them stood the two teams that had made a significant contribution to Toulouse only finishing second: Soyaux's women were the only ones who hadn't lost any of their two point games against the TOAC, and Montpellier Le Crès was the only woman to win the title could have hit.
With Cormelles and Marseille, two promoted players immediately returned to the second division, with Celtic with the weakest defense and the most unsuccessful attack of the season not losing only one game (2-2 against Saint-Brieuc); they had to accompany the women from Quimper, who did not do much more successfully than Marseille. These three teams were replaced the following season by the promoted Paris Saint-Germain FC , EC Tours (this had joined the FC Tours for the coming season ) and SC Caluire Saint-Clair .

Toulouse kept a clean slate in this round and was able to defend his championship title. TOAC also benefited from the fact that Juvisy had nothing more to add at the end of the season, as did the women from La Roche-sur-Yon , who could look forward to an unexpected runner-up.
