The history
In 2021, the Women's First Division was split into two sections. Four teams battled it out in Group 1 – Free State, Griffons, Griquas and SWD – while Group 2 featured five teams – the Leopards, Limpopo Blue Bulls, Mastercard Golden Lions, Valke and Pumas. The teams faced off in a single round and the two group winners progressed to the final, where the Lions ended up successfully defending the title they won in 2019.
