The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs Women are an Australian professional rugby league club based in Belmore, a suburb in the Canterbury-Bankstown region of Sydney. From mid-2025 they will compete in the National Rugby League Women's Premiership.[1] Currently, the club fields women’s teams in the pathway competitions facilitated by the New South Wales Rugby League, including the open-age Harvey Norman Women's Premiership, Under 19 Tarsha Gale Cup, and Under 17 Lisa Fiaola Cup.
The club’s entry into the NRLW for the 2025 season was confirmed by an NRL announcement on 28 March 2024. [1] The Bulldogs were named as one of two additional clubs for the 2025 season, along with the re-entry of the New Zealand Warriors.
On 30 May 2024, the Bulldogs announced the appointment of Blake Cavallaro as their NRLW coach for their entry into the competition in 2025.[2] As part of preparations for 2025, Cavallaro was appointed to coach the Bulldogs team in the 2024 season of the NSWRL Women's Premiership. [3]
From 19 July 2024 the Bulldogs began to announce player signings for the 2025 NRLW season.
