Changes will apply for all adult intercounty championships at national and provincial levels.
An LGFA Special congress has voted through the package of 12 playing rule enhancements that were trialed during the National League.
The changes will apply instantly for all adult intercounty championships at national and provincial levels.
Six of the rules mirrored changes made in the men's game - including the kick-out mark, two-point scoring arc, and frees brought forward for tactical fouls or sideline dissent.
The six other rule changes looked specifically at current LGFA rules, including those related to the tackle.
