SANFL Women's League

SANFL Women's League (also known as the SANFLW or the Statewide Super Women's League) is the major state-level women's Australian rules football league in South Australia. The league was launched in February 2017, initially comprising four clubs from the men's South Australian National Football League (SANFL). The league now features eight teams and is the second primary competition for South Australian female footballers underneath the semi-professional national AFL Women's (AFLW) competition.

The league currently runs from February to May, meaning it partially overlaps with the AFLW season and so is mostly played by players not yet drafted by an AFLW club.

Clubs

The first season comprised four SANFL clubs; Norwood, Glenelg, North Adelaide and West Adelaide.[1] The following year Sturt and South Adelaide were admitted to the competition, before expanding again with the addition of Woodville-West Torrens and Central District (2019).[2] Neither of the state's two AFL clubs (Adelaide and Port Adelaide, who field reserves teams in the SANFL) field teams in the SANFLW league. Adelaide are a foundation partner of the AFLW competition and Port Adelaide are not currently a member of the league.
