Favourite women’s sports?

Okay. I don’t know about you lot, but I think I could do with some positivity on the topic of sport and I think a spotlight should be shone on the women in this thread.

I quite enjoy the AFLW (Australian Rules Football Women’s.)
Big shocker coming from an Aussie and a hardcore AFL fan (Go the Lions!!!) lol
The Women’s league is actually fairly new-ish, starting out in 2017 and actually had to fast forward their plans for expansion after interest was higher than the AFL commission expected. It’s at a semi professional level right now.
It’s still finding it’s footing and whilst maybe not always as intense as the men’s league (likely due to the women playing other sports during the off season) I think it’s coming along very nicely. And I think it’s cool to see the league embrace the Women’s division.

Obligatory shout out to the NRLW
(That’s what we call Rugby here)
The other “footy” we Aussies enjoy.
Also started in 2017 and like it’s AFL counterpart, is growing rapidly still
Very cool to see that code embrace the Women’s division

Don’t mind the Women’s Cricket.
And I enjoy a Women’s soccer match, from time to time.
I like a Women’s Hockey match though ours is usually without the ice lol

Some of those Olympic sports are pretty entertaining (yes, I’m counting those as well.)
The divers and gymnasts freak me out. I couldn’t do that lol

So what about you guys?
What are some local or international women’s sports leagues that you enjoy?
What sports would you like to see produce a women’s division?
Which do you think deserves more love?

I am not much of a sports fan, but I like soccer. I just realized that Orlando has a women's team, so I will have to keep an eye on them.
I like figure skating and gymnastics but don't watch them much.

Sand volleyball.

I'm not much of a sports fan, but I like baseball, hockey and auto racing. More women in those sports wouldn't bother me and might be good for them. In racing women have actually been doing well for themselves considering they are still a minority.

I know this might come as a shocker given your an Aussie and all, but equality in lifespan isn't really what we're going for in that whole gender equality thing.

Strewth mate!
Yeah nah, I reckon we are flat out like a lizard drinking, these days. Both blokes and shielas.. But I think we can do it.
Even if all that proves is that we’re all a few Roos loose in the top paddock
