Overview
First selectionNicola Barr (Greater Western Sydney)

The 2016 AFL Women's draft consists of the various periods where the eight clubs in the AFL Women's competition can recruit players prior to the competition's inaugural season in 2017.

Draftees and signings over the period were required to have a minimum age qualification of 18. Prior to the draft itself each club was allowed to sign two marquee players from any state across the country at an increased salary. In addition they were permitted to sign a number of priority players who already have a connection to the club and up to two rookie players who have not played competitive Australian rules football in the three years prior. All remaining players entered the draft and became eligible to be selected by any team based in their nominated state-based zone.[1][2]

Marquee signings

On 27 July 2016, each of the competition's eight teams announced their two marquee player signings allowed prior to the October draft.[3]
