[Edmonton, AB., April 9, 2024] — Silent Ice Sports & Entertainment proudly announces the launch of the Female Super League (FSL), set to debut its inaugural season in 2024-25. Designed to elevate female youth hockey, the FSL will provide a platform for young athletes to showcase their talents, fostering growth, development, and community engagement.
The FSL will feature two divisions in its maiden season: 12U and 14U, catering to female hockey players in Pacific Canada. Teams from Ontario and Quebec will participate in special events, enhancing the league’s competitiveness and expanding opportunities for cross-regional interaction.
