About
The Bulls Daisies completed a perfect season in 2023, winning every one of their games as they claimed the Women's Premier Division title for the first time since 2006, beating DHL WP in the Final in Pretoria. In 2022, the Border Ladies successfully defended the title they also won in 2021 in an epic final against DHL WP in Cape Town, which was the fifth consecutive final between these two unions. The other teams in the competition in 2023 were the Mastercard Golden Lions Women, the EP Queens, Boland Dames, and Sharks Women.
The history
A revamped Women's Premier Division returned to the schedule in 2021. Six teams - Boland Dames, Border Ladies, Blue Bulls Women, Eastern Province Queens, Cell C Sharks Women and DHL Western Province – took each other on in a jam-packed 11-week competition over a double round of action, culminating in the final between WP and Border in Cape Town, where the Ladies won back the title for the first time in five years. Western Province won the title in 2019, while no competition took part in 2020 due to the COVID pandemic.
