Names of WSL and Championship could change in new women’s football era

• Changes may be made by new company after this season
• NewCo on track to take over leagues by September

The names Women’s Super League and Women’s Championship could be changed once the top two divisions in the English women’s game are run separately from the auspices of the Football Association.

It is understood there are no immediate plans to alter the names but the company that will run both divisions from the 2024-25 season will be keeping an open mind and is not ruling out such tweaks beyond next summer.
