South Western Districts women's cricket team

The South Western Districts women's cricket team, also known as the Six Gun Grill Garden Route Badgers, is the women's representative cricket team for part of the South African province of Western Cape. They compete in the CSA Women's One-Day Cup and the CSA Women's T20 Challenge.

History
South Western Districts Women joined the South African domestic system ahead of the 2005–06 season, playing in the Women's Provincial League, in which they finished 6th in their group of 7 with one win from their twelve matches. They have competed in the tournament ever since, but have never reached the knockout stages. In the 2008–09 season, they won the B Section Group, but lost the promotion/relegation play-off to Eastern Province. In 2021–22, the side topped Pool A before beating Free State in a play-off to gain promotion to the Top 6 for the first time.

They have also competed in the CSA Women's Provincial T20 Competition since its inception in 2012–13, but again have never made it to the knockout rounds.

In August 2023, it was announced that a new professional domestic system would be implemented for women's cricket in South Africa. As one of the six teams in the top division of the two domestic competitions, South Western Districts would be allowed eleven professional players from the 2023–24 season onwards.
