4 months ago – December 20, 2023

The Hostplus SANFLW League continues to flourish with the addition of two extra rounds and an inaugural State Game for the 2024 season.

Kicking off with Round 1 on Friday March 1, the Hostplus SANFLW League home-and-away season will extend from 12 to 14 rounds, concluding on Saturday June 15.

Norwood will commence its 2024 SANFLW season at Coopers Stadium on Friday, March 1 against reigning premiers Central District. For the second season in a row the Redlegs will take on the reigning premier in Round 1.

It doesn’t get much easier in Round 2 when Norwood travels down to Noarlunga to take on the 2023 runners up in South Adelaide.

Norwood will play everyone twice throughout the 2024 season under the new extended season model.

The Redlegs finished the 2023 minor rounds season in third place, winning its first final against Sturt before falling to premiers Central District in the preliminary final.

A three-week finals campaign – featuring the four best-performed teams – will begin on the weekend of Saturday June 22, culminating in the Hostplus SANFLW League Grand Final being played on the weekend of Saturday July 6 at a venue to be confirmed.

In an historic first, the best SANFLW players will have the chance to don the treasured red guernsey in a State Game to be played against the WAFLW in Perth on the weekend of Saturday May 4.

”We are really excited to reward our elite SANFLW players with the opportunity to represent their State against Western Australia,” SANFL Head of Football Operations Sean Toohey said.

“We have continued to strengthen our rivalry with the Sandgropers in the Men’s competition and look forward to building the same tradition in the Women’s arena.”

All Hostplus SANFLW League and Development League games will be telecast live and on-demand via the League’s streaming platform – SANFL Now.
