Nigeria - List of Women Champions


Female football in Nigeria started in 1978 with the foundation of the NIFFOA (Nigeria Female Football Organising Association), renamed NIFFPA (Nigeria Female Football Proprietors Associations) in 1979, and joined by clubs like Jedege Babes, Ufuoma Babes, Larry Angels, Kakanfo Babes and others.
The first national championship was organised by the NFA in 1990 (possibly 1989/90 season).
