PWHPA to host showcase in Montreal

The Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association has announced their first showcase in Montreal, to be held April 2-3 at the Verdun Auditorium.

The PWHPA previously hosted events in Montreal, but they were one-off games between two teams. This event will host teams from the Montreal, Boston, Minnesota, and Calgary regions.

Montreal and Calgary have all won one showcase a piece this season. The event will be sponsored by Quartexx Management, and held by the Centre 21.02, the only nationally-recognized women’s hockey centre for excellence in Canada.

“Quartexx is proud to support the efforts being made by the PWHPA to offer a sustainable professional women’s u200bhockey league,” said Giordano Saputo, Chief Operating Officer at Quartexx Management.
