The 2022 VFL Women's season was the sixth season of the VFL Women's (VFLW). The season commenced on 12 February and concluded with the grand final on 3 July.[1] Essendon went through the season undefeated and won its first VFLW premiership, defeating the Southern Saints by 35 points in the grand final; this resulted in the first completed VFLW season since 2019 after COVID-19 disruptions affected the previous two seasons.[2]
The season consisted of 14 games for each of the 12 clubs, all of whom returned from the 2021 VFL Women's season.[3] For the first time, all matches were available to watch via the AFL website/app or the VFL/VFLW YouTube channel.[4]
