The 2025 Colombian Women's Football League (officially known as the Liga Femenina BetPlay DIMAYOR 2025 for sponsorship purposes) is the ninth season of Colombia's women's football league. The season began on 21 February and is scheduled to end on 7 September 2025.[1]
Deportivo Cali are the defending champions.
Format
For this season the competition is played in four stages, with a round-robin first stage in which the 16 participating teams played each other once plus an additional match against their derby rival for a total of 16 rounds. The top eight teams advanced to a second stage in which they will be drawn into two groups of four teams, with each team playing the others in their group twice. The novelty for this season is the addition of a semi-final stage to be played over two legs by the top two teams of each second stage group, with the winners facing each other in the final series to decide the league champions. Both league finalists will qualify for the 2025 Copa Libertadores Femenina.[2]
Teams
16 DIMAYOR affiliate clubs are taking part in the competition with their women's teams, 12 of which participated in the previous season. Cúcuta Deportivo, Deportivo Pereira, and Llaneros did not enter this edition of the tournament.[3][4] On the other hand, Atlético Bucaramanga,[5] Fortaleza, Once Caldas,[6] and Orsomarso returned to the competition. Orsomarso played its home matches in Yumbo, Valle del Cauca Department as part of a 3-year deal signed with the Yumbo Municipality,[7] whilst Alianza, which had its women's team based in Yumbo in the previous season, moved to Agustín Codazzi, Cesar for this year.[8]
