History

On 25 July 2019, during a general assembly meeting with all Liga 1 club representative in Jakarta, Acting Chairperson of PSSI Iwan Budianto announced the formation of the new Liga 1 Putri.^[1] From 2006, the Pertiwi Cup was Indonesia's top women's association football competition. However compared to the Liga 1 Putri, the Pertiwi Cup was contested by Indonesian provincial selection teams and not by clubs. The league was formed as a means to aid the selection of players for the Indonesian women's national team and so that the competition between boys and girls is balanced.^[3]

Ten teams out of 18 in 2019 Liga 1 teams announced their participation in the inaugural season of Liga 1 Putri: Persija, PSM, Persib, TIRA-Persikabo, Bali United, Arema, PSIS, Persipura, PSS, Persebaya.^[1]

There are 10 teams in the league, divided into two groups for the first round. In the first round, all groups play four-series home tournament with five matches for each series. The best two teams advance to semi-finals. Semi-finals and finals play home and away format.^[4]
