Notes

England is not holding an official women's championship in 2017. The FA is returning top-flight women's football to the autumn-to-spring season that had prevailed prior to the establishment of the WSL, which started play in 2011 under a spring-to-autumn format. To that effect, a one-off FA WSL Spring Series will be held in spring 2017.
