The AAA West Virginia High School Women's Soccer State Tournament was first held in 1995. The tournament was created to provide an opportunity for the state's top high school women's soccer teams to compete against each other in a postseason format. From 1995 until 2007 the schools where in an unified system, meaning all schools played at the same level. From 2008 until now, the schools were divided in two classes: AAA (schools with 801 or more students) and AA-A (school with 800 or less students). This schools only compets between their classes on the post season.

This means that from 1995 - 2007 only one school could be state champion each year, and from 2008 to current days, 2 schools is state champion every year (one school from class AAA and one school from class AA-A)
