Format

[edit]

The league adopted a new split-season format, which was used through the 2020–21 season. In the regular season, the eight teams played each other three times, for a total of 21 matches each. After those matches, the top four teams would qualify for a championship play-off and the bottom four teams would play a placement play-off. Teams played the other teams in their group twice, for a total of 6 matches. Points accumulated in the regular season were halved and added to the points of the play-off stage rounds for the final point total.[9] At the time, KNVB women's football manager Minke Booij said the new format would strengthen competition and create more top matches.[10]

The champion qualifed to the UEFA Women's Champions League.
