Founded in 2019, the PWHPA is comprised of over 100 of the world's best female hockey players and was formed with the goal of creating a sustainable league that provides equity, fairness, and opportunity in women's professional hockey. The PWHPA is currently comprised of four teams: Team adidas, Team Harvey's, Team Sonnet, and Team Scotiabank.
Team Harvey's will play Team adidas in Game 1 of this year's showcase at 11a.m. on March 4. This matchup will be followed by Team Scotiabank and Team Sonnet facing off at 2:30 p.m. in Game 2. On March 5, Team Sonnet will take on Team Harvey's at 11 a.m. in Game 3. Game 4 will take place later that day at 2:30 p.m. with Team adidas playing Team Scotiabank.
More than 40 Team USA and Team Canada Olympians will be part of the tour, and the showcase will serve as the final weekend of the PWHPA regular season prior to the playoffs. Select participants include:
Individual day passes to two games will be available for $35, along with a weekend pass to all four games for $50. The first 250 tickets sold will include a custom Capitals PWHPA Showcase drawstring backpack (one per ticket).
In addition to these games, the Capitals and the PWHPA will present two clinics and one chalk talk opportunity for local women and girls. PWHPA athletes and coaches will lead instruction for both clinics as well as the adult chalk talk.
Registration opens at 10 a.m. on December 20 for a March 2 high school clinic, a March 3 youth clinic, and a March 3 adult chalk talk. The adult chalk talk will feature PWHPA Lead Operations Consultant and former Olympian Jayna Hefford, among other PWHPA athletes and staff.
