The Australian Women’s Ice Hockey League has released the schedule for the upcoming 2024–25 season. The regular season will start on 2 November 2024 and run through to 16 February 2025, followed by the playoffs which will be held on 1 and 2 March 2025. In addition to the regular season games there will also be six exhibition games involving the Melbourne Ducks who are aiming to enter the league proper from 2025–26. The Melbourne Ducks will also take part in the playoffs, competing in two exhibition games during the finals weekend against the fifth ranked team.

Each team, not including the Melbourne Ducks, will play a 16-game regular season with two home and two away games against each opponent. The teams will play out of the same venues as last season with the exception of the Melbourne Ice who will play their entire home season out of the O’Brien Icehouse after holding one round out of iceHQ in 2023–24.

Note: All times local. EX = Exhibition game, RE = Regular season game.
