Naisten Mestis (lit.'Women's Championship Series'; from Mestaruussarja, 'Championship series') is the second-highest women's national ice hockey league in Finland. Founded as the Naisten I-divisioona (lit.'Women's First Division') in 1985 by the Finnish Ice Hockey Association, when the number of teams playing in the top-tier national league was limited, the league was renamed Naisten Mestis prior to the 2012–13 season.
