The Vrouwen Eredivisie (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈeːrədiˌvizi]) (Dutch for Honor Division, Eredivisie Vrouwen before 2020), also known as the Azerion Eredivisie Vrouwen due to a three-year sponsor contract beginning in the 2022–2023 season,[1] is the highest women's football league in the Netherlands. Organized by the Royal Dutch Football Association (KNVB), it was established in 2007 as a professional league and played for five seasons until 2012, when the leagues of the Netherlands and Belgium merged forming a single combined league (BeNe League). The BeNe League folded after three seasons, and the Eredivisie was restarted in the 2015–16 season. The top two teams receive a spot in the UEFA Women's Champions League.
History
Background
Since the 1970s, amateur women's football competitions have been played in the Netherlands, with the Hoofdklasse being the highest level. During the 1990s, the popularity of women's football rose, with the sport becoming an Olympic event in 1996 and hundreds of thousands of tickets sold during the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup. With the Netherlands women's national football team unable to qualify to major tournaments such as FIFA Women's World Cups, UEFA Women's Euros or Olympic Games and the most talented female players leaving for Germany or other countries with professional leagues, the Royal Dutch Football Association (KNVB) felt compelled to act.[2][3]
In January 2007, the KNVB presented plans of the Eredivisie Vrouwen, a professional women's league.[2] Many clubs were interested, and on 20 March 2007, the league was officially unveiled by the KNVB for three seasons, with the first scheduled for 2007–08 with six clubs taking part (ADO Den Haag, AZ, SC Heerenveen, FC Twente, FC Utrecht, and Willem II).[4][5][6]
According to the league's business plan, initially the national team players were divided amongst the six clubs. Aside from organizing the league, the KNVB provided a start-up subsidy, contribution to the costs, and technical assistance to the professional clubs, which in return would provide technical and medical staff, transport, training, and other facilities to their players. The clubs also had to affiliate an amateur club who would use players coming back from injury or reserve players or young talented players from the professional club. The idea was to expand the league from six clubs to 10–12 clubs in 5–8 years.[7][8]
2007–2012

On 29 August 2007, the opening ceremony for the launch of the Eredivisie Vrouwen took place at the Arke Stadion in Enschede, with the presentation of the six participating teams, ahead of the league's inaugural match played by FC Twente and SC Heerenveen in front of 5.500 spectators. Visitors SC Heerenveen won the match 3–2. Marieke van Ottele scored the first ever Eredivisie goal for FC Twente, 73 seconds into the match.[9][10] At the end of the 2007–08 season, AZ were crowned the first Eredivisie champions and Karin Stevens the top scorer with 20 goals.
On 15 April 2008, Roda JC was confirmed as the seventh team for the 2008–09 season.[11] AZ won the championship for a second consecutive year, and Sylvia Smit was the top scorer with 14 goals.
On 5 May 2009, financial problems forced Roda JC to announce its withdraw from the Eredivisie.[12] Six teams participated in the 2009–10 season, which for a third consecutive season was won by AZ and had Sylvia Smit (for a second consecutive season) and Chantal de Ridder as top scorers with 11 goals each.
Two new teams, VVV-Venlo and FC Zwolle, joined the league on 10 March 2010,[13] increasing the number of teams to eight for the 2010–11 season. FC Twente won its first league title, breaking AZ's three-year championship streak. Chantal de Ridder was the top scorer for a second consecutive season with 19 goals.
- Changes ahead of 2011–12
On 22 February 2011, during the second half of the 2010–11 season, a meeting between the League (Stichting Eredivisie Vrouwen – SEV), KNVB and clubs was held to discuss possible improvement to the league. A statement from the KNVB announced that for the next season, matchdays would move from Thursdays to Fridays, relationship changes between clubs and their affiliated amateur clubs, guideline principles amongst other topics discussed and the financial conditions were to be discussed on a further meeting, as the KNVB was trying to keep the league with eight teams next season.[14] On the same day, following the meeting, three-time league champions AZ announced it would withdraw from the league once the season was completed.[15] On the following day, Willem II announced it was also withdrawing from the league's next season.[16] Financial issues were responsible for both clubs' decision.[17] PSV, working to build a women's team, confirmed on 3 March 2011 it would not participate in the following season.[18] On 8 March 2011, FC Utrecht also announced its withdraw from the next season, also due to financial reasons,[19][20] but on 6 April 2011 retreated its withdrawal and confirmed it had secured finances for one more season.[21] On 14 April 2011, SC Heerenveen announced its withdraw due to financial issues.[22] Two weeks later, on 26 April 2011, as the club continued working to find sponsors to remain in the league, RBC Roosendaal presented a possibility of entering a team if its male team remained in Jupiler League.[23] The KNVB extension of the clubs' registration deadline allowed SC Heerenveen to secure the funds needed to play another season, and on 28 April 2011, the club confirmed its participation.[24] On 27 May 2011, SC Telstar was confirmed as the seventh team for the following season.[25]
The 2011–12 season was won by ADO Den Haag, the club first league title, and Priscilla de Vos was the top scorer, with 16 goals. It was the last Eredivisie season for several years, as on 30 August 2011 the KNVB and its Belgian counterpart (KBVB) presented a proposal to merge its respective women's professional leagues into a combined BeNe League.[26] On 10 December 2010, the KBVB agreed to go ahead with the BeNe Lague[27] and two days later the KNVB decided to stop investing in the Eredivisie Vrouwen for the next three years.[28] On 13 February 2012, the KNVB announced it was also going ahead with the BeNe League,[29] and on 23 March 2012, it received approval from UEFA.[30] The new league had its inaugural season in 2012–13.
2015–present
After three season, the BeNe League folded at the end of the 2014–15 season.[31] On 2 April 2015, the KNVB confirmed the restart of the Eredivisie Vrouwen with the participation of the seven Dutch clubs that played in the final BeNe League season.[32]
The 2015–16 season had Ajax and PSV make their debut in the Eredivisie Vrouwen, as both clubs established women's teams in 2012. They joined ADO Den Haag, SC Heerenveen, Telstar, FC Twente, and PEC Zwolle, which all returned to the Eredivisie after the 2011–12 season.[33] FC Twente won its second Eredivisie title in 2015–16, and Jill Roord of FC Twente was the top scorer with 20 goals.
The 2016–17 season was played by eight clubs after Achilles '29 was confirmed as newcomers on 16 June 2016.[34][35] Ajax won the title for the first time, and Telstar's Katja Snoeijs was the top scorer with 21 goals.
On 1 March 2017, Telstar announced it was being replaced by a new club, VV Alkmaar.[36][37] On 10 April 2017, Excelsior Barendrecht became the ninth team for the 2017–18 season.[38] On 21 April 2017, VV Alkmaar was officially formed.[39]
On 26 April 2019, SC Heerenveen announced it would not compete in the 2019–20 season, but on 19 June, the club reversed course and announced it would continue its women's team.[40] Due to COVID-19, the 2019–20 season concluded early, with the final match played on 18 February 2020. No champion was named, with PSV having the most points when the season was halted. Joëlle Smits of PSV was the leading scorer, with 16 goals.[41]
For the 2020–21 season, the league was re-branded as Vrouwen Eredivisie and given a new logo with a stylized lioness. On 31 March 2021, Feyenoord announced that the club would join the Eredivisie in the 2021–22 season.[42]
In January 2022, Dutch media reported that Fortuna Sittard and Telstar would compete in the Eredivisie the following season,[43] taking the total to 11 clubs. For Telstar, it meant a return to the league after five years, while Fortuna was a newcomer. Both wanted to capitalise on the growing popularity of the women's game in the Netherlands. FC Utrecht rejoined the Eredivisie in 2023,[44] bringing the league to 12 clubs. AZ Alkmaar also rejoined the Eredivisie in the 2023–24 season, replacing VV Alkmaar.[45]
Format
For its first three seasons (2007–08 to 2009–10), the Eredivisie played in a quadruple round-robin format, with teams playing each other four times a season, twice at home and twice away. In the following two season (2010–11 and 2011–12), the schedule was changed to a triple round-robin, with teams playing each other three times (once at home, once away with the third confrontation defined by a lottery-system before the season). In 2015–16, the original quadruple round-robin was restored. From 2016 to 2020, the season was split in two parts, a regular season, where all clubs play a triple round-robin format, and a playoff, where the best four regular season teams form a champions group and the remaining teams form a placement group, a double round-robin (one match home and one away) in each group. The points accumulated at the regular season are halved and added to the points of the playoff stage rounds.[46] In the 2021–22 season, the league returned to a triple round-robin system, eliminating the playoffs.[47] In the 2022–23 season, the league changed to a double round-robin format.[48]
There is no relegation from the Eredivisie, although a relegation/promotion system was planned in the long run.[49]
