The final deciding match for the championship was due to be played on January 13th, 1996. Since Prima Ham FC Kunoichi won both stages, this match was unnecessary and thus Prima Ham won their first league title (as of 2014 they are called Iga FC Kunoichi).
TOKYO SHiDAX LSC withdrew from the league and were dissolved. They were therefore replaced by the winners of the JLSL Challenge League, OKI Lady Thunders.
