Format

On 13 January 2022, the División Mayor del Fútbol Profesional Colombiano (DIMAYOR) confirmed the format for the 2022 Liga Femenina season, following a meeting of its Board of Competition. For this season the league will have 17 teams competing as well as a change of format for the first stage, which will be played as a single round-robin tournament with all teams playing each other once and having a bye day, instead of the group stage used in previous editions of the tournament. The top eight teams at the end of the first stage will advance to the quarter-finals, with the winners advancing to the semi-finals. The winners of each semi-final will qualify for the finals to decide the champions. All rounds in the knockout stage will be played on a home-and-away, double-legged basis. The champions and runners-up will qualify for the 2022 Copa Libertadores Femenina.[3]

Teams

17 DIMAYOR affiliate clubs are taking part in the competition with their women's teams. No teams from the previous season withdrew, whilst Junior, Deportes Tolima, Deportivo Pereira, Orsomarso and former champions Atlético Huila returned to the competition for this season.[1][4] Cortuluá, who withdrew from the previous season due to financial reasons, also fielded a team for this season.
