The top 12 2018 was the 16th French women's chess team championship .
The championship was the Club de Clichy-Echecs-92 , which had only risen from the National I last year , while the defending champion Club de Mulhouse Philidor had to be content with second place. Last year, alongside Clichy Echiquier Nîmois and La tour de Juvisy , Nationale I was promoted . While all the climbers achieved relegation, Cercle d'Echecs de Strasbourg and Évry Grand Roque had to relegate. Since no promoted team was reported from the eastern relay of Nationale I and Cercle d'Echecs de Villepinte decided not to participate, the competition was held with only ten teams; Therefore, only two teams relegated to reach the target strength of twelve teams again for 2019.
