Wests Tigers Tarsha Gale will open their 2019 season on February 9 when they take on the St. George Dragons at Mascot Oval.
After a dominant pre-season that saw the girls chalk up big wins over the Victorian Women's Development Team and Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs in successive weeks, the side will look put their hard work to good use in the season opener.
Having ended the season with a heartbreaking Semi Final defeat last year, Wests Tigers will be hoping that their strong squad this year can take the next step in 2019.
As a whole, the competition will be bigger and better this season with the competition set to shine more light on the rapid growth of women's Rugby League as young stars transition into the Harvey Norman NSW Women’s Premiership.
