The competition will run across four weeks commencing Wednesday, February 3.
Games will be held at Stephen's Park, Bowral.
Games will commence at 4.20pm.
The competition is open to females aged 12 years or older.
In an attempt to keep teams even and ensure every player gets a game, players will be allocated to specific clubs.
Players can indicate if they would prefer to be on one team over another in the fill out form.
Coordinator of the Women's T20 competition, Sam Nassa said it is a very exciting opportunity for females always wanting to play the game.
"It's time for the ladies of the Southern Highlands to step up and get out on the cricket field," Nassa said.
"It's essential for this competition to be backed. There are so many females sitting there on the sidelines wondering if they could do it, well this is now the opportunity.
"It gives mothers an opportunity to be active in sport and it's a huge growth area for cricket in the Highlands.
"We're so passionate about cricket and I think it's going to be really exciting."
The teams competing will be:
- Wingello
- Robertson-Burrawang
- Bowral
- Moss Vale
Late entries will be accepted and if numbers continue to grow, team numbers will be expanded and also more teams added to the competition.
