The 2025 NRL Women's season will be the eighth professional season of the NRL Women's Premiership. The number of teams (twelve) is an increase on the 2024 season by the readmission of the New Zealand Warriors and the introduction of the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs. The expansion in 2025 was confirmed by the NRL in March 2024. [1] The start date and duration of the season was confirmed by the NRL with the release of the draw on 21 November 2024. [2]
The ten teams that participated in the 2024 season will return for the 2025 season with the addition of the New Zealand Warriors, who return after a four-season hiatus, and new entrant Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs.
Notes:
The start, duration, and conclusion of the 2025 season was influenced by several factors.
Both the New South Wales and Queensland State premiership competitions will run in parallel with the 2025 NRLW season. [16] This is a scheduling change for Queensland, which in 2024 ran from early March to late May.
On 5 June 2025, the NRL announced a trial match between the Brisbane Broncos and Papua New Guinea Orchids. [17] On 10 June, the Newcastle Knights announced their team for a trial match on the following Sunday. [18] The Gold Coast Titans announced a trail match against the North Queensland Cowboys, with the teams playing for the Brittany Breayley-Nati–Jenni-Sue Hoepper Shield as they did in 2024. [19] On 16 June 2025, the Cronulla Sharks announced a trail for the following Sunday. [20] On 17 June 2025, the Wests Tigers announced a trail and their team for the following Sunday. [21] On the same day, the Canterbury Bulldogs announced a trail and their team for the following Saturday evening. [22]
