Yesterday the Major Division of Colombian Soccer, Dimayor, announced all the details and guidelines about a new season of the 2024 Women’s League. On this occasion there will be 15 teams that will be present and the round-robin format will be maintained. Once again, Deportivo Pereira remains the only team representing the Coffee Region after the absence of Deportes Quindío and Once Caldas.
Game system
A total of 15 dates will be played in which one team will always rest per day. One of the great novelties for 2024 is that the competition will have semi-final home runs, to later experience the grand final that will take place in a round-trip match, similar to what happens in the men’s national football championships.
Start date
The League will begin on February 17 and end on August 18, thus becoming the longest-running women’s competition since its creation. It is worth noting that the final two matches of the tournament will have the VAR tool. Likewise, the champion and runner-up teams will be the representatives of Colombia in this year’s Copa Libertadores Femenina.

Requirement for international tournament
Let us remember that Conmebol requires men’s soccer teams to participate in the women’s championships as a requirement to be able to participate in international competitions, which means that Águilas Doradas must seek an alliance with one of the 15 clubs in the country to be able to comply. this requirement and compete without problems in this year’s Copa Sudamericana.

Although Deportivo Pereira has not yet made its coaching staff official for the women’s team for this year, it is known that the technical director will be Jorge Enrique Patiño.
