The 2020 WAFL Women's season was the second season of the WAFL Women's (WAFLW). The season commenced on 18 July and concluded with the Grand Final on 19 September 2020. The competition was contested by six clubs, one more than the previous season with the addition of South Fremantle, all of whom were affiliated with men's clubs from the West Australian Football League (WAFL).[3] The commencement of the season was delayed several months due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
