The Myanmar Women League (MWL) () is a Myanmar professional league for women's football, contested by 9 clubs. Since 2016 it has been sponsored by the Kanbawza Bank, and are thus billed as the KBZ Bank Women's League.
The Myanmar Women's League (MWL), the top-tier professional women's football league in Myanmar, was officially established in 2016. Its creation marked a significant milestone for women's sports in the country, providing a structured and competitive environment for female athletes. The league was founded with seven teams and was sponsored by Kanbawza Bank, leading to it being billed as the KBZ Bank Women's League. The inaugural season, which ran from 2016 to 2017, was a landmark event, with the Myawady W.F.C. emerging as the first-ever champions.
In its early years, the MWL saw a strong rivalry develop between its top teams. Myawady W.F.C. dominated the first two seasons, winning both the 2016-17 and 2017-18 titles. The competition intensified in the 2018-19 season when ISPE W.F.C. broke Myawady's winning streak to claim their first championship. This rivalry has continued to define the league, with both clubs consistently battling for the top spot. Over the years, ISPE and Myawady have become the most successful teams in the league's history, each holding multiple championship titles.
A new chapter in the leagueâÂÂs history emerged in the 2025âÂÂ26 season, when Ayeyawady won the MWL title for the first time. Their championship marked the end of the long-standing dominance by Myawady and ISPE and saw Ayeyawady crowned as new champions of the Myanmar Women League, highlighting the growing competitiveness and evolving balance of power within the league.
