Summary

The competition is open to the league champions of all UEFA member associations who run such championships; 46 of UEFA's 53 member associations have entered.

The top eight associations may enter two teams, and the title holder is also entitled to an additional spot if they do not qualify through their domestic league.

The competition was known as UEFA Women's Cup until 2009.

French side Lyon hold the record with eight titles. VfL Wolfsburg hold the distinction of losing the most finals with four. Germany is the most successful member association with nine titles.
