1902 WAFA Season

These are the results for the 1902 season of the West Australian Football Association (currently known as the West Australian Football League).

It featured eighteen rounds in a triple round-robin format with three qualifying rounds that excluded the team that was placed last on the ladder after the first fifteen rounds. It should be noted that teams did not necessarily play their matches following the same order as the nominal round numbers of those matches this season. East Fremantle were the minor premiers.

The season did not feature a finals series and East Fremantle were declared the premiers.
