South Wales Women's & Girls' League (SWWGL)

The South Wales Women's & Girls' League (SWWGL) is an amateur football league for women and girls in South Wales. It was founded in 1992 and currently has over 100 teams competing in 10 divisions.

The SWWGL is affiliated to the Football Association of Wales (FAW) and its competitions are sanctioned by the FAW. The league's top division, the Premier Division, is at Tier 4 of the Welsh football pyramid.

History

The SWWGL was founded in 1992 by a group of women who wanted to create a more structured and competitive environment for women's football in South Wales. The league started with just 10 teams and has grown steadily ever since.

The SWWGL has played a major role in the development of women's football in South Wales. Many of the players who have gone on to represent Wales at international level have played their early football in the SWWGL.

Current season

The 2023-24 season is the 31st season of the SWWGL. The Premier Division is currently being led by Cardiff Met Women, who are unbeaten in their first 10 games.

The other divisions are also very competitive, with several teams challenging for promotion. The SWWGL Cup is also being contested this season, with the final scheduled to be played in May 2024.
