2022 NRL Women's season
The 2022 NRLW Premiership will be the fifth professional season of Women's rugby league in Australia. The season will start around the August–September period and the Grand Final will be played on Sunday the 2nd of October alongside the 2022 Mens Grand Final. This will be the last season before the NRLW goes professional.[1][2] If the same format used for the delayed 2021 NRLW season (of five rounds, semi-finals and a grand final) is also used for the 2022 NRLW season, then the competition will likely start on the weekend of 20-21 August, 2022.
