Canada’s national women’s hockey team is coming to Kingston.
The national squad will square off against Finland at Slush Puppie Place on March 30 in a warm-up to the 2024 IIHF Women’s World Championship in Utica, New York.
“Partnering with Hockey Canada to host a Women’s World pre-tournament game in Kingston is not just about the game. It’s about celebrating the best in women’s hockey,” Kingston Frontenacs’ president and governor Doug Springer said in a statement.
“We’re looking forward to the community coming together and supporting the finest women athletes in the sport.”
The Women’s World Championship runs from April 3-14 and will see 10 teams compete in 29 games.
The Canadian women have brought home two gold medals and a silver in the last three world championships.
