FA WSL records and statistics
The following is a list of records and statistics of the FA Women's Super League (FA WSL) — the highest level of women's football in England — since its inception in 2011. Barring total appearances, all statistics do not include the 2017 FA WSL Spring Series, which bridged the gap between the 2016 and 2017–18 season, featuring only 8 games for each team. Many league record team statistics (such as those related to points, goals, wins and losses) only cover 22 and 14 game seasons, as they have been featured in the league at least more than once.
- As of end of 4 December 2022
The following lists the season lengths of all seasons of the WSL thus far:
