The ranking based on the UEFA Women's Champions League association coefficient was used to determine the number of participating teams for each association:http://www.uefa.org/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/Regulations/02/11/62/07/2116207_DOWNLOAD.pdf Regulations of the UEFA Women’s Champions League 2014/15 UEFA Associations 1–8 each had two teams qualify.

Association ranking For the 2014–15 UEFA Women's Champions League, the associations were allocated places according to their 2013 UEFA Women's Champions League association coefficient, which took into account their performance in European competitions from 2008–09 to 2012–13.2014/15 coefficient rankings https://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/competitions/General/02/10/85/45/2108545_DOWNLOAD.pdf UEFA 21 May 2014 The Czech Republic overtook Austria for eighth place in the UEFA coefficient ranking and thus assured themselves a second entry.
