Opening month
The Sharks will open their inaugural NRLW season with a clash against the Raiders at PointsBet Stadium in a double-header that will later see the men's side take on Manly.
They'll then hit the road to Belmore in Round 2 to clash with Wests Tigers before returning to the Shire for back-to-back home games against the Titans and Roosters in standalone events at PointsBet Stadium.
With two of four matches scheduled against new teams entering the competition, it will be the perfect opportunity for the Sharks to hit the ground running against their fellow newcomers before the middle part of the season.
The run home
Cronulla face two tricky road trips in the final three weeks with clashes against the Broncos in Townsville set for September 2, followed by the Eels at GIO Stadium as part of an NRLW double header for the final round.
In between that they face a five-day turnaround leading into a rivalry set to explode in the women's game between the Sharks and Dragons with many from the Red V jumping ship to the Shire in the off-season.
And another thing...
The Sharks will feature in two double headers with the men's side in 2023 - Round 1 at PointsBet Stadium and an away trip to Newcastle in Round 6 at McDonald Jones Stadium.
They'll also meet the Cowboys in Round 5 two days after the men's match is played on Thursday evening.
