The 2010–11 FA Women's Premier League season was the 20th season of the former top flight of English women's association football. This season the FA Women's Super League became the top level, superseding a reduced eight-team Premier League National Division.
Although there was no promotion to the FA Women's Super League until at least 2013, two teams were relegated into the Northern and Southern Divisions. The top two from each of these Divisions will then be promoted into a 10-team National Division for 2011-12.[1][2]
