Luke Sanders, Head of WAFL Competitions at the West Australian Football Commission, is expecting further growth in the competition as the WAFLW expands to nine teams.
“The standard of the WAFLW continues to improve and last season’s exciting Grand Final between Claremont and East Fremantle was a fitting finale to a great season of women’s football in WA,” Sanders said.
“The WAFC believes the skills and depth of talent across the League will continue to improve, and with the introduction of a new player points system this will ensure another highly successful year for the competition.”
