Winter World University Games
Starting in 2011, university teams have been competing at the Women's World Univesity Games (WWUG). This Championship takes place every second year.
US College Hockey
Here is a list of all women's college hockey teams in the USA, and past championship winners.
There is currently a Division I ECAC league, a western and eastern ECAC Alliance league, and a Midwestern Collegiate Women's Hockey Alliance (MCWHA) league. There is the newly formed Central Collegiate Women's Hockey Association (CCWHA), which is made up of club teams from Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and Wisconsin. There is also the ACHA for club hockey teams. Please see Mitzi Witchger's information for a list of which colleges will have women's varsity hockey teams from 1997 to 2001.
If you need to contact a coach for a US college hockey team, here is the directory for the US college teams. This directory contains mailing addresses, phone numbers, and e-mail addreses.
You can order a College Hockey media guide from Amazon or an ECAC Ice Hockey media guide from the ECAC HockeyNet web page!
Here is some information on women's hockey scholarships in the United States. In general, I'd suggest contacting the coaches of the universities that you are interested in attending to find out about the academic programs that are offered and scholarship availability. You may also find Alan Chim's guide to choosing a college to be very helpful.
The Varsity Scouting Program is a non-profit scouting service for Bantam and Midget age female hockey players. The purpose is to identify those female players on a team that are both strong students and good hockey players.
The University Prospects and Varsity Link web pages may be helpful if you're considering applying to a university. Here is a link to the Premiere Hockey Services placement service designed to give women exposure for US NCAA College Hockey.
The hockey-l college hockey mailing list is a useful source of women's college hockey information. Details about how to join this list are provided in my Women's Hockey Information web page. I'd like to give a special thanks to Richard Hungerford for providing this information and for doing so much for women's hockey.
Two different ECAC All-star teams competed in exhibition games
against Team USA on October 18th and on October 21st, 1997. The
following link with additional information about the
Team USA vs ECAC All-Stars
was provided by the US College Hockey Online Press Release.
At the end of the 1996-97 season, it was announced that there would be a U.S. national women's college hockey championship starting in the 1997-98 season.
With 22 institutions offering women's hockey, it is considered an emerging sport in NCAA. Of 22 schools, 10 were Division I, one Division II and 11 Division III. To go from an emerging sport to an NCAA national championship, 40 or more institutions must sponsor the sport for two consecutive academic years.
Canadian University HockeyHere is information about women's university hockey teams in Canada. If anyone has more information about which universities in Canada have women's hockey teams, please send me e-mail. Women's hockey is now a CIS sport with a National Championship!
If you need to contact a coach of one of the teams, here is the Canadian University hockey directory. It contains phone numbers, addresses, and e-mail contact information for universities and colleges in Canada. Here is some information on eligibility for Canadian women's university hockey.
The hockey goals web page may be handy if you are considering applying to a university. You may also find Alan Chim's guide to choosing a university/college to be helpful. Check out the Varsity Scouting Program, a non-profit scouting service for Bantam and Midget age female hockey players. The purpose of this program is to identify those female players that are both strong students and good hockey players.
