Extraliga žen ve florbale (also ČEZ Extraliga)[1][2] is the highest-level women's league in the Czech Republic.
The league consists of 12 teams. Since the competition's foundation in 1994, a total of 48 teams have participated, of which only 1. SC Vítkovice has played in the league continuously since its inception.
Seven teams have won the championship title in the history of the competition. The most successful teams are 1. SC Vítkovice (nine titles, most recently in the 2024–25 season), Tigers Jižní Město (eight titles, most recently in the 2016–17 season), FBC Liberec (six titles, most recently in the 2005–06 season), and Tatran Střešovice (five titles, most recently in the 1998–99 season).[3] In the last 2025–26 season, the team Bulldogs Brno won the championship for the first time.[4]

Season structure
In the regular season, which takes place approximately from September to March, all teams play each other twice (a total of 22 rounds). Teams receive 3 points for a win, 2 points for an overtime win, and 1 point for an overtime loss.[6] The winner of the regular season is awarded the Presidential Cup.
After the regular season, the top eight teams advance to the playoffs, which usually begin in March and culminate in April. The top three teams from the regular season successively choose their quarterfinal opponents from the four remaining teams, taking into account factors such as geographical proximity, current form, and other aspects. Similarly, in the semifinals, the highest-ranked remaining team from the regular season selects its opponent from the two lowest-ranked advancing teams. Both the quarterfinals and semifinals are played as best-of-seven series.[6] The final is a single match, held together with the men's Superliga florbalu as part of an event called the Superfinal. The Extraliga champion qualifies for the Champions Cup. If the same team wins both the league and the Czech Floorball Cup, the league runner-up also qualifies.[7]
The bottom four teams from the regular season (9th to 12th place) compete in the play-down (two rounds, each a best-of-seven series) to determine which team will be relegated directly to the 1st League (1. liga). The loser of the second round of the play-down is replaced by the 1st League champion. The runner-up of the 1st League then faces the winner of the Extraliga play-down second round in a promotion/relegation playoff (best-of-five series).[6]
