League A consists of 28 teams, including the seven promoted from League B after round 2 of the 2024/25 edition this spring. The teams were drawn into seven groups; from these single-venue mini-tournaments, the teams finishing fourth will be relegated to League B for 2025/26 round 2, with the other positions deciding seeding for League A in that round.

The 24 teams in League B (including San Marino, making their debut in UEFA women's competition at any level) will compete for promotion to League A in six groups. The group winners and the best runner-up will be promoted. Bosnia and Herzegovina will take part even though their finals place is assured as hosts.

League A round 2, drawn on 11 December and played in spring, will decide the seven teams joining Bosnia and Herzegovina in the finals draw on 22 April. The final tournament is played from 27 June to 10 July 2026.
