In the 1970s, many women's football clubs were formed in Algeria as in Tiaret in 1975 but they only took part in friendly tournaments only. Since 1990, other clubs began to appear.

The first Algerian women's championship was contested in 1998–1999 season under the regional leagues format. In the 2008–09 season, a national league of two divisions was created (D1 and D2) under the auspices of the Ligue Nationale du Football (LNF). In 2013, was created the Ligue du Football Féminin (LFF) which became the Ligue Nationale du Football Féminin (LNFF) and which is the body of the national women's championships.

The competition changed its name to Elite National Championship from the 2021–22 season.
