Tiebreakers for league ranking

If two teams are level on points, the tie-break is:

  • winners of the head-to-head game are ranked ahead
  • if the head-to-head match was a draw, then whichever team scored more points in the game is ranked ahead (e.g. 1-15 beats 2–12)
  • if the head-to-head match was an exact draw, ranking is determined by the points difference (i.e. total scored minus total conceded in all games)
  • if the points difference is equal, ranking is determined by the total scored

If three or more teams are level on league points, rankings are determined solely by points difference.

Finals, promotion and relegation

The top two teams in Division 1 contest the Ladies' National Football League final.

The top two teams in Divisions 2, 3 and 4 contest the respective division finals; the division champions are promoted.

The last-placed teams in divisions 1, 2 and 3 are relegated.
