The AFL has today announced the 2023 AFLW Trade Period will run from Thursday, December 7 until Thursday, December 14.

The 2023 AFLW Draft will be held in-person at Marvel Stadium on Monday, December 18.

In line with the AFLW Season Eight Supplementary Draft, nominees will be permitted to nominate for a ‘national pool’ again, allowing draftees to be considered by all 18 clubs in the NAB AFLW Competition.

A player can nominate for their home state’s draft pool or nominate to enter in a national draft pool.

Each player who is required to relocate through the draft will be eligible for expanded relocation benefits as included in the recent CBA.

Last weekend eight of the States rising stars took part in the 2023 AFLW Draft Combine held at Curtin Stadium.

East Fremantle WAFLW premiership player Mylee Leitch produced a standout result at the AFLW WA Draft Combine in Perth at the weekend.

Leitch recorded the fastest time in the country for the agility test, posting 8.321 seconds.
