Senior Women's National Football Championship is the women's football tournament which is contested by state associations and government institutions in India.[1] The first edition was held in 1991 and is organized by the All India Football Federation to crown the national women's football champion each year. It is based on a league and knockout format.
The format consists of zonal group stages where all the state teams participate. It is followed by the final round.[2]
When the number of teams is known, those are divided into eight groups with equal number of teams. The preliminary qualifying league will be played on a single leg league basis. The eight winners move on to the two quarter final leagues. That is played as a single leg league, with the best two teams of each group qualifying for the semi-finals stage. From there on it is a knock out format with single leg matches. Tie breakers in the league stages are:
Superior number of points in all matches
Superior number of points in matches of tied teams
Superior goal difference
Superior number of goal scored
Drawing of lots
