In this the inaugural season of the WOSFL the Premier Division comprises of 20 teams which would require each team to play 38 league fixtures. With the season yet to start due to the COVID-19 restrictions then clearly is unrealistic that the fixtures would be completed.
Consequently, the Premier Division has been divided into two Groups of 10 teams. Teams in the same group will play each other Home and Away, i.e. 18 fixtures. The teams in one group will play the teams in the other group once, either Home or Away, giving another 10 fixtures. The league season will therefore be reduced form 38 to 28 league fixtures.
As previously defined 7 teams will be relegated from the Premier Division at the end of the season.
