“Bringing PWHL games to fans in both countries is a natural next step as we continue to build our audience,” said Amy Scheer, PWHL Senior Vice President of Business Operations. “When exploring potential locations for a PWHL game, the enthusiasm from cities eager to join our League was incredibly encouraging. The PWHL Takeover Tour will allow us to showcase our game and exceptional athletes to a broader North American area – an exciting moment for our players and an important step for our company as we consider expansion.”

“(We’re) looking for the right market size, the right fan base, the right facilities, the right economic opportunity – so there’s a lot of research to be done in the coming months,” Scheer said in October. “But yes, I want to continue building the league and growing the number of teams.”
