LNV Ligue A Féminine (LAF) is the top division of French women's volleyball, established in 1941.[1] It is governed by the Ligue Nationale de Volley (LNV), an independent body that runs French professional volleyball under delegation from the French Volleyball Federation (FFVB).
In addition to the usual 14 club participants, the 2018–19 season saw the inclusion of France Avenir 2024, a Toulouse-based development program aimed at nurturing the next generation of French national team players.
