The South Australian Women's Football League (SAWFL) was the governing body and top level of women's Australian rules football in the state of South Australia from 1991-2016. In 2017, the SAWFL merged with the South Australian Amateur Football League to form the Adelaide Footy League, being replaced by the SANFLW. History In 1990, a group of South Australian women instigated the preparation to establish the South Australian Women's Football League (SAWFL) after an exhibition match between the Victorian Women's Football League (VWFL) and some sporting identities in South Australia proved to be a huge success. The founder of the SAWFL, Gina Dutschke, with the assistance of Jenny Williams, were then able to gather enough interest from sportswomen throughout the metropolitan region to form a league of their own in 1991. Clubs that were instrumental in the early years the League were the Cougars, Thunderbirds, Hectorville, Brighton, Modbury, Para Hills, Kilburn, Edwardstown, Pooraka, Goodwood, North Adelaide, West Adelaide, McLaren Vale and Sturt. The League comprised four clubs in its final year: Woodville-West Torrens, Morphettville Park, Port Adelaide and Greenacres. SAWFL collaborated with the SANFL's Affiliated Junior District Leagues with the planning of a Youth Girls competition which commenced in the 2008 season. Over 900 players had registered with SAWFL since 1991. Under the guidance of the President, Georgi Iley, the League progressed forward in generating a player pathway for females of all ages in South Australia. At the conclusion of the 2015 season, the AFL announced that there would be a ten-match Exhibition Series in 2016, which included a South Australia v NSW/ACT State of Origin match and a South Australia Reds v South Australia Blues match, and the formation of the AFLW in 2017. Subsequently, the SAWFL merged with the SAAFL to form the Adelaide Footy League, becoming the women's competition of that League, and was replaced by the SANFLW from 2017. League members who long represented SA at the National Women's AFL Championships and played 250 games or more were Catherine Mulvihill (305 games), Tiffany Lee (302 games), Cheryl Wills (268 games), Nancy Tidswell (266 games), Linda Mounsey (252 games) and Cassie Hartley (251 games).
