2022–23 Perth Scorchers WBBL season
The 2022–23 Perth Scorchers Women's season was the eighth in the team's history. Coached by Shelley Nitschke and captained by Sophie Devine, the Scorchers entered WBBL08 as defending champions after claiming their maiden title in WBBL07. They finished the regular season in fifth position and consequently failed to qualify for the finals. Squad 
Each 2022–23 squad was made up of 15 active players. Teams could sign up to five 'marquee players', with a maximum of three of those from overseas. Marquees were defined as any overseas player, or a local player who holds a Cricket Australia national contract at the start of the WBBL|08 signing period. Personnel changes made ahead of the season included:

 Heather Graham departed the Scorchers, signing with the Hobart Hurricanes. Holly Ferling signed with the Scorchers, having previously played for the Brisbane Heat, Melbourne Stars and Melbourne Renegades. Maddy Darke signed with the Scorchers, having previously played for the Sydney Sixers and Melbourne Stars. Sri Lankan marquee Chamari Athapaththu did not re-sign with the Scorchers.
