The New Zealand Women's Central League (WCL) is an association football league competition administered by Capital Football for women's club teams located in the Wellington, Hawke's Bay, Manawatū-Whanganui, Taranaki and Gisborne–Tairāwhiti regions of the North Island, New Zealand.

The WCL is within the second level of New Zealand Football, below New Zealand Women's National League, and is the highest level of club based football available to teams within the Wellington Region and Central Districts of the lower North Island of New Zealand.

Clubs are promoted to the WCL via seasonal playoff through qualification from the Capital Football Women's Premier League or the Central Football Women's Regional Federation League.
