2021–22 Perth Scorchers WBBL season

The 2021–22 Perth Scorchers Women's season was the seventh in the team's history. Coached by Shelley Nitschke and captained by Sophie Devine, the Scorchers finished the regular season of WBBL|07 on top of the ladder to claim their first minor premiership. They hosted the championship decider at Perth Stadium on 27 November 2021, defeating the Adelaide Strikers by 12 runs to win a maiden WBBL title. Marizanne Kapp was named Player of the Final for her influential all-round performance, scoring 31* off 23 deliveries and producing bowling figures of 1/25 from four overs. For the second consecutive season, batter Beth Mooney was the league's leading run-scorer.
