The West Australian Women's Football League (WAWFL) is the governing body of women's Australian rules football in the state of Western Australia.
The WAWFL football league was formed in 1987. The first season of competition was played in 1988 between four clubs, with a team from Mount Lawley winning the inaugural premiership. A second division was added from 2007 and the two divisions were later renamed "League" and "Reserves", the format most commonly used in Australian football leagues.
During the history of the league, some clubs which were originally formed independently have become associated with the clubs competing in the men's Western Australian Football League. The current clubs are:
Division 1
Division 2 (formerly Reserves)
Fairest and Best The Medal is awarded to the best and fairest overall of the season as determined by the Umpires. This prestigious award is presented to the recipient at the end of season Presentation Dinner.
