The 2024 Argentine Women's Primera División A is the 6th season of top-flight semi-professional women's football in Argentina and the 34th season overall. The league season began on 9 March and will end on 15 December 2024.[1]

Eighteen teams will compete in the league: sixteen returning from the 2023 season as well as two promoted teams from the 2023 Primera División B (Newell's Old Boys and San Luis FC), both teams will be participating in Primera División A for the first time in history from this season.[2][3] Boca Juniors are the defending champions.

Competition format

[edit]

The season is divided in two separate championships, called Apertura and Clausura. Both tournaments are run under a single round-robin, contested by 18 teams (16 from the previous edition plus 2 promoted from Primera División B). If each tournament is won by a different team, they will play a single-legged qualifier for the 2025 Copa Libertadores Femenina.[1]

In this season the bottom four teams of an aggregate table of the Apertura and Clausura tournaments will be relegated to the Primera División B.

Club information

Most Argentine women's teams, with a few exceptions, play their home games in other facilities of their clubs and not in the main stadium, unless it is a special occasion, according to the club's interpretation. Both venues where it is most common for them to play at home and where they occasionally play are shown.

It is expected to take place on December 15. If the same team wins both tournaments it will automatically qualify to the competition.[1]
