2022 RFL Women's Super League

The 2022 RFL Women's Super League known as the Betfred Women's Super League for sponsorship reasons, will be the sixth season of the Rugby League Women's Super League, for female players in clubs affiliated to the Rugby Football League (RFL).

The defending champions are St Helens, who beat Leeds Rhinos 28–0 in the Grand Final at Headingley on 10 October 2021, in front of a record crowd of 4,235.^[1]

The league increased the number of participating teams by 2, from 10 to 12, with Barrow Raiders and Leigh Miners Rangers being promoted to the Super League, after finishing first and second respectively in the 2021 Women's Championship.^[2] However, the structure of the league has changed, with the league being split into two groups of six; a structure based on the play-off and shield structures used in the second half of the 2021 season. Group 1 comprises last season's top five - Castleford, Leeds, St Helens, Wigan and York, plus Huddersfield, who won the 2021 shield competition. Group 2 will comprise Bradford, Featherstone, Wakefield and Warrington, and the two promoted clubs, Barrow and Leigh Miners. The RFL explained that the split structure as giving the player for clubs in group 1, challenging fixtures in the run-up to the World Cup; while allowing the clubs in group 2, the opportunity to develop by playing clubs in more competitive matches.^[3]
