THE FOLLOWING changes have been made to the competition ahead of the 2025 NAB AFLW Season.
- Clubs will be permitted to trade their future first-round selection or their future second-round selection, but not both. Board approval will be required for the trading of future first round selections and Clubs must have a presence in the first round for at least two years within a five-year period unless otherwise approved.
- The AFLW Pre-Season Draft will replace the Supplementary Selection Period, with dates for the Pre-Season Draft to be confirmed in due course.
- For stoppages that occur within 10 metres of the boundary between the 50m arcs, the ball up will take place 10 metres inside the boundary.
These changes come as the league embarks on the 10th AFLW season, kicking off with Carlton v Collingwood on Thursday 14 August at IKON Park.
