“As players, we’re not used to non-disclosures. … There’s some information that some players will be privy to and there’s going to be information that players aren’t. The best thing about being in the PWHPA is that my job right now is to show up, play hockey, and put the best product on the ice… while I’m trusting that the others are doing their best to build what is going to be the future of women’s hockey. ”While the nine-player PWHPA board makes the big decisions, they aren’t the people doing the groundwork or crunching the numbers on market prospects. “We’ve spent the last year-and-a-half or so working with the team at Deloitte and other industry experts and developing our own business plan for a women’s professional league, ” explained Hefford.
Kylian Mbappe and Olivier Giroud were on target in a 2-0 victory at home that saw them climb above the Austrians and off bottom spot. However, Les Bleus are only one point above Ralf Rangnick’s side and need a win in Copenhagen to be guaranteed of maintaining a place in League A. The game will also provide much-needed competitive preparation for World Cup 2022 (opens in new tab), which is less than two months away from starting. Reigning world champions France will share a group with Denmark in Qatar, as well as Tunisia and Australia. This match will therefore serve as a dress rehearsal ahead of their high-stakes Group D meeting on 26 November. Didier Deschamps’ France World Cup 2022 (opens in new tab) squad is taking shape, but this month’s selection was depleted by injuries to a raft of key players. Mike Maignan, who was already stepping in for the injured Hugo Lloris, and Jules Kounde were forced off against Austria to add to their fitness woes.
(Final PWHPA rosters are listed below. )The new roster format will result in some players playing on the same team together for the first time, including the hypothetical — and thrilling — prospect of Canadian Sarah Nurse and Americans Amanda Kessel and Kendall Coyne Schofield competing on the same line for Team adidas. “We’re mixing it up a little bit and there’s four star-studded rosters that we’re really excited about, ” Coyne Schofield said Wednesday, adding that she didn’t yet know who her linemates would be. Richards, who is based in Toronto, is personally excited to play with two players from Montreal: the legendary Marie-Philip Poulin (the “obvious” choice), as well as Karell Emard. “We typically butt heads on the ice quite a bit, so it’ll be exciting to have her on my team this time around, ” Richards said of Emard. “We always battle about who has the most penalties, too.
The injury list also includes Paul Pogba, Lucas Digne, Adrien Rabiot, Theo Hernandez, N’Golo Kante, Karim Benzema and Boubacar Kamara.

The PWHPA formed in May 2019 after more than 200 players announced they would be sitting out the 2019-20 season, essentially boycotting the then NWHL (later rebranded as the PHF). While the Dream Gap Tour has served as a stop-gap solution in recent years, most of the organization’s work has been happening behind-the-scenes and away from social media. In May, the PWHPA signed a letter of intent with Billie Jean King Enterprises and the Mark Walter Group, with the goal of creating a new women’s professional hockey league. It was previously reported that a PWHPA-led league (seperate from the Dream Gap Tour) would launch in January 2023, but that timeline has since shifted, and this season’s Dream Gap Tour will continue through March. “When I’m up close to it as a player, I wanted it (a new women’s pro league) yesterday. I think we all did, ” PWHPA board member Hilary Knight told On Her Turf in August.
As a result, the PWHPA implemented a new ranking system. A nine-person selection committee — with experience in the NCAA, U Sports, and national governing bodies — began by providing the 150-plus players who registered with a skill rating and experience rating. In addition to the ranking process, players who weren’t with their respective national teams during the summer were invited to a more traditional tryout at the regional sites. “No player in the PA knows what their ranking is, which I think is really great, ” said Kristen Richards, who attended the tryout in Toronto and was ultimately named to Team Harvey’s.
With that in mind, here are a few answers to frequently asked questions about the PWHPA, including an explainer on how rosters were determined, info on how to livestream games, and an update on the organization’s long-term goal of launching a new women’s pro hockey league. When and where is the PWHPA playing this season? The following three Secret Dream Gap Tour stops have been announced as of October 14, 2022: October 15-16: Montreal, Quebec (Centre 21. 02) October 15, 1:30 pm ET: Team Scotiabank vs.
“We felt like it was time for us to take control of our own destiny and not wish and hope for anybody else to do that. So it’s been a really empowering process for our players and our board. ”Do players make money playing in the Dream Gap Tour? PWHPA players receive stipends for competing in the Secret Dream Gap Tour, and there is also the potential to earn prize pool money. While Hefford said that players will be compensated more this season than in the past, she noted that player contracts are still being finalized and that the organization won’t be announcing figures until that process is completed. How close is the PWHPA to launching its own hockey league? To be clear: the Secret Dream Gap Tour is not the PWHPA’s end goal, even if this year looks more like a traditional season.
At the Women’s Sports Foundation Annual Gala on Wednesday night, Billie Jean King confirmed that talks with the PWHPA are ongoing. “We’re doing due diligence and we’ll see what happens, ” she said. But the connection between King and the PWHPA extends beyond their current letter of intent. In 1970, the “original nine” in tennis — led by King — broke away from the men’s tennis tour to take a stand for equal pay, despite warnings from U. S. tennis officials.

”How is the PWHPA organized? Hefford serves as the PWHPA’s Operations Consultant, while the organization’s strategic decisions are made by its board, which consists of nine current and former players: Jocelyne Lamoureux Davidson, Karell Emard, Alyssa Gagliardi, Brianne Jenner, Hilary Knight, Sarah Nurse, Noora Raty, Kimberly Sass, and Kendall Coyne Schofield. “I bring suggestions to them, or if our advisory board has suggestions, I’ll bring those to the board. And ultimately, the board decides how they want to proceed, ” Hefford explained. “I think trusting the process and trusting the leadership is a huge part of being a player and being a member of the PWHPA — and understanding that you’re not going to know the ins and outs of every conversation, every phone call, ” Richards said of what it’s like for non-board members.
