WAFL Women's (WAFLW) is an Australian rules football league based in Perth, Western Australia.
The WAFLW is the premier women's football competition in Western Australia, and from 2023 is contested by eight teams owned and operated by clubs in the men's West Australian Football League (WAFL).
Five of the ten WAFL clubs fielded teams in the inaugural 2019 WAFLW season: Claremont, East Fremantle, Peel Thunder, Subiaco and Swan Districts.
[4] Neither of the state's two AFL teams (Fremantle and West Coast) field teams in the league: Fremantle was an AFLW foundation club in 2017, while West Coast entered the AFLW in 2019 after playing scratch matches in 2017–2018.
Perth intend to join the WAFLW in 2026,[5] after the club's long-running financial and administrative problems and an exodus of players and officials saw their women's team go into recess at the end of 2018.
