In 2017, the SAWFL merged with the South Australian Amateur Football League to form the Adelaide Footy League. HistoryIn 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 and 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 today, comprises again four clubs: Woodville West Torrens, Morphettville Park, Port Adelaide and Greenacres. SAWFL is currently in collaboration with the SANFL's Affiliated Junior District Leagues with the planning of a Youth Girls competition and this is anticipated to commence in the 2008 season. Over 900 players have registered with SAWFL since 1991, and there is a new generation to come. Under the guidance of the President, Georgi Iley, the League is now progressing forward in generating a player pathway for females of all ages in South Australia. Significant milestones of League members who have long represented SA at the National Women's AFL Championships are Catherine Mulvihill (224 games), Tiffany Lee (190 games), Cheryl Wills (165 games), Nancy Tidswell (139 games), Cassie Hartley (123 games), and Linda Mounsey (116 games).
