The 2022 New Zealand Women's National League is the second scheduled season of the new National League since its restructuring in 2021; the 2021 National League was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in northern regions.[1] The 2022 season will be the twentieth season of national women's football and will be a hybrid season. The competition will feature four teams from the NRFL Premier League representing the Northern Conference, Central Football and Capital Football representing the Central Conference and Canterbury United Pride and Southern United representing the Southern Conference.[2][3]
