The 2013 FA WSL was the third season of the FA WSL, the top-level women's football league of England. The season began on 14 April and ended on 29 September.
Arsenal were the defending champions, having won their ninth consecutive English title last season. The top two teams qualified for the 2014–15 UEFA Women's Champions League.
The season was the last before the creation of a second division of the WSL. All teams had to reapply for a place in WSL 1 in the next season. Doncaster Belles were the only current WSL team not granted a WSL 1 place, thus they played in the WSL 2 the following season. This decision had already been taken before Doncaster finished the season bottom of the WSL with the lowest points tally, as no relegation to the WSL 2 based on points was scheduled until the WSL 2 had completed its inaugural season to produce a corresponding promotion team. The reason for Doncaster's relegation from WSL 1 was a failed reapplication based on financial criteria, which is an aspect of the WSL the FA monitors very closely since it funds the participating teams and the teams must regularly prove they can match the FA funding. The Belles' place in the top flight the following season was taken by the Manchester City Ladies team from the FA Women's Premier League National Division, but now re-branded as Manchester City Women. Likewise, Lincoln Ladies retained their place in WSL 1 but relocated and re-branded as Notts County Ladies for the following season.
The 2016 FA WSL will be the sixth edition of the competition since the WSL was formed in 2010. The WSL 1 was expanded to nine teams. The WSL 2 included one team promoted from the Women's Premier League for the first time.

WSL Cup
The FA WSL Cup format was changed to a true knock-out tournament. With 19 teams, the bottom six teams play a preliminary round. The round of 16 following that is seeded, so that WSL 1 teams meet WSL 2 teams, who have home advantage.
The 2014 FA WSL was the fourth season of the FA WSL, the top-level women's football league of England. The season began on 30 March and ended on 12 October.
Beginning in the 2014 season, the WSL added a second division, the WSL 2. Because the divisions are interconnected, WSL 1 teams face the risk of relegation for the first time in the league's history. There is, however, no connection to the third level Women's Premier League, so WSL 2 teams cannot be relegated. WSL 1 consists of eight teams while the WSL 2 is made up of ten.
Starting places in both divisions were granted based on applications sent in by clubs, so Manchester City were able to enter its newly created women's team directly into the WSL 1. The governing body announced it will partially fund teams in the league, awarding £70,000 to clubs in WSL1 and £23,000 in WSL2.
The 2012 FA WSL is the second season of the FA WSL, the top-level women's football league of England. The season began on 8 April 2012 and was scheduled to end in October 2012. The league is to break between 8 July and 19 August to allow preparation for the 2012 London Olympics.
Arsenal won the competition, their ninth consecutive English title. Entry to the 2013–14 UEFA Women's Champions League was earned by Arsenal, as champions, and Birmingham City, as runners–up.

These three goals extended the Gunners' record to 12 Cup triumphs and their first since 2011 when they proved too strong for the same opponents who were then appearing in their first Final.

Arsenal reclaimed The FA Women's Cup after defeating Bristol Academy 3-0 in The Final at Keepmoat Stadium.
Steph Houghton nodded home a fine opener in just the second minute of play, Jordan Nobbs doubled the lead on 72 with a header of her own and Ellen White sealed the win deep into added time.
These three goals extended the Gunners' record to 12 Cup triumphs and their first since 2011 when they proved too strong for the same opponents who were then appearing in their first Final.
And the perennial Cup winners got off to the perfect start as their skipper headed them into the lead almost from the kick-off.
Houghton sprayed the ball wide to Rachel Yankey on the left wing and then continued her run into the box. England's most capped player of all time delivered a delicious cross to the back post where Houghton had peeled off her marker to powerfully plunder home an early opener.
The Vixens, far from being shell shocked, sought an instant reply and came close to levelling after Lucy Staniforth's low corner hit the near post and bounced into the six yard box where Jemma Rose could only knock her shot over the bar.
But Arsenal upped the ante soon after and White forced Siobhan Chamberlain into two very good saves within five minutes of each other.
The first saw her turn a snapshot over the bar, but the second stop was far better as she stretched every sinew to palm away her England colleague's close range effort following another excellent centre from Yankey.
Bristol players openly admit to freezing in 2011 and they did well not to fold after conceding so early. They played some nice football in patches and Nikki Watts's attempted lob was just too high to trouble Emma Byrne in the Arsenal goal.
As the half wore on neither side were able to fashion many goal chances, though young midfielder Nobbs came close to doubling the Gunners' advantage shortly before the break. She burst down the inside right channel and into the Bristol area, but her angled drive came back off the far upright and, luckily for the Vixens, straight into Chamberlain's arms.
The west country outfit started the second half brightly and Lucy Staniforth forced Byrne to get down well at her near post to turn a free-kick behind for a corner.
But Arsenal came again with Yankey curling a free-kick just over the frame of the goal, Houghton missing the target from range and Gilly Flaherty heading Kim Little's corner narrowly wide.
The game was stopped after Staniforth fell to the floor in agony having seemingly caught her studs in the turf, causing what is likely to be a very lengthy lay-off.
Whether this stoppage affected Bristol is debatable but when the game restarted Arsenal quickly assumed control of proceedings and doubled their lead just minutes later.
Davison did well to battle her way past Vixens' captain Corinne Yorston down the right and she delivered a pinpoint cross which Nobbs headed back across goal and into the far corner to give the Gunners a comfortable lead.
Bristol boss Mark Sampson made an attacking change almost immediately, replacing right-back Loren Dykes with the prolific Spanish striker Laura Del Rio. And the manager's intentions were almost rewarded as Natalia Pablos Sanchon, another Spaniard, came close with an overhead kick inside the box.
Nobbs, though, had the chance the seal the win on the counter attack with just six minutes remaining. She latched onto Davison's through ball and bore down on goal but Chamberlain sped from her line to bravely deny the 20-year-old a second goal.
A third Arsenal goal did come, however, in the fourth of six added minutes as White smashed the ball into an empty net after Chamberlain had parried Nobbs's close range effort.
This goal capped a fine Arsenal win and allowed them to claim their seventh Cup win in ten years and the first of Kerr's fledgling reign.

The 2013 FA WSL was the third season of the FA WSL, the top-level women's football league of England. The season began on 14 April and ended on 29 September.
Arsenal were the defending champions, having won their ninth consecutive English title last season. The top two teams qualified for the 2014–15 UEFA Women's Champions League.
The season was the last before the creation of a second division of the WSL. All teams had to reapply for a place in WSL 1 in the next season. Doncaster Belles were the only current WSL team not granted a WSL 1 place, thus they played in the WSL 2 the following season. This decision had already been taken before Doncaster finished the season bottom of the WSL with the lowest points tally, as no relegation to the WSL 2 based on points was scheduled until the WSL 2 had completed its inaugural season to produce a corresponding promotion team. The reason for Doncaster's relegation from WSL 1 was a failed reapplication based on financial criteria, which is an aspect of the WSL the FA monitors very closely since it funds the participating teams and the teams must regularly prove they can match the FA funding. The Belles' place in the top flight the following season was taken by the Manchester City Ladies team from the FA Women's Premier League National Division, but now re-branded as Manchester City Women. Likewise, Lincoln Ladies retained their place in WSL 1 but relocated and re-branded as Notts County Ladies for the following season.
