1988–89 Club Femení Barcelona season

The 1988–1989 season was the first season that Club Femení Barcelona played in a federation-recognised national league, with the 1988–89 Liga Nacional de Fútbol Femenino. The team played home games at the Zona Esportiva del FC Barcelona.

Events
Following the recognition of women's football by the Royal Spanish Football Federation, a top flight national league was created. It began on 4 December 1988 and lasted through 30 April 1989.

Club Femení Barcelona had previously been known as Peña Femenina Barcelonista, but changed its name prior to the season. A different team, Peña Barcelonista Barcilona, also competed in (and eventually won) the inaugural league.

Each team sat out two matchdays due to the odd number of teams in the league; Barcelona rested on matchday 8 (5 February 1989) and matchday 17 (23 April 1989). Barcelona finished fourth in the league, tied on points with rivals Español but losing out on goal difference.

The 1989 Copa de la Reina de Fútbol became a national cup with the introduction of an official national league. Barcelona renounced playing in the Copa de la Reina in the season.

Players
Among the players were Pilar Moreno, Kety Pulido, Adelina Pastor Martínez, Sílvia Gelabert Udina and Àfrica Ocaña Fernández.
