The 2005 Women's Australian Hockey League was the 13th edition women's field hockey tournament. The tournament was held between 25 February – 10 April 2005.[1]
QLD Scorchers won the tournament for the second time after defeating WA Diamonds 3–1 in the final. NSW Arrows finished in third place after defeating Adelaide Suns 4–0 in the third and fourth place playoff.[2]
The 2005 Women's Australian Hockey League consisted of a single round robin format, followed by classification matches.
Teams from all 8 states and territories competed against one another throughout the pool stage. At the conclusion of the pool stage, the top four ranked teams progressed to the semi-finals, while the bottom four teams continued to the classification stage.
The first four rounds of the pool stage comprised two-legged fixtures based on aggregate scores to determine point allocation.
In the event of a draw, a penalty shoot-out was contested, with the winner receiving a bonus point. If a shootout occurred in both instances of a two-legged fixture, a bonus point was awarded to the winner of each shoot-out.
