Women's football in Indonesia is not popular but is mainly played in affluent areas in Indonesia.[1][2]

One of the barriers of the sport growing is that many women experience prejudice for playing the sport.[3][4]

In December 2017, Women's Football Association of Indonesia (ASBWI) was created in their first congress in Palembang.[5]

In 2019 Liga 1 Putri was launched as the top-flight women's football league in Indonesia.[6]
