Already in 1968 was first played by an Italian championship. However, there were two competing leagues. It wasn't until 1973 that an agreement was reached and from then on the Italian champions in Serie A will be determined. Over the years there have been repeated renaming and transfer of clubs. So it happens that the same club became champions under three different names.

The league consists of twelve teams. Each club plays twice against each other team. Each team has 22 games this season. The champions and runners-up qualify for the UEFA Women's Champions League , while the third from last relegation is played and the last two are relegated to Serie B.
