† Tournament winner As of March 22, 2016; Rankings from AP Poll |
The 2015–16 West Coast Conference women's basketball season began with practices in October 2015 and ended with the 2016 West Coast Conference Women's Basketball Tournament at the Orleans Arena March 3–8, 2016 in Paradise, Nevada. The regular season started in November, with the conference schedule starting at the end of December.
This was the 31st season for WCC women's basketball, which began in the 1985–86 season when the league was known as the West Coast Athletic Conference (WCAC). It was also the 27th season under the West Coast Conference name (the conference began as the California Basketball Association in 1952, became the WCAC in 1956, and dropped the word "Athletic" in 1989).

The AP Poll does not do a post-season rankings. As a result, their last rankings are Week 19. The Coaches Poll does a post-season poll and the end of the NCAA Tournament.
BYU defeated #12/11 Texas A&M 72–64 to win the Tom Weston Invitational.
This table summarizes the head-to-head results between teams in conference play.
The 2015-16 season sees one new face in the WCC. Lynne Roberts left Pacific to become the new head coach at Utah.
The WCC player of the week awards are given each Monday.
