Game time: Women's games are 15 minutes plus time on for goals or major injuries only, and an additional two minutes plus time on for match stoppages, goals or major injuries.

Shorter season: The season is shorter than the men's, with 11 games and finals. 16 players on the field- the team is arranged in a 5-6-5 configuration with 5 forwards, 6 midfielders, and 5 defenders. Five players sit on the bench and there is no cap on the number of interchange rotations. AFL games have 18 players and the men’s game is 6-6-6, with 6 forwards, 6 midfielders, and 6 defenders.

The women play with a smaller ball. AFLW matches are played with a size 4 Sherrin football which is slightly smaller than the men, which uses a size 5.

There's no centre bounce. Because of a smaller ball, umpires throw the ball up in the centre of the ground.
