At the PHF, we are passionate about building and sustaining a premier league that allows elite athletes to compete professionally and earn a living wage playing ice hockey. Our league is rooted in bold and unprecedented advancements within the women’s professional ice hockey landscape.

Players in this league include rising stars who recently graduated from top Division 1 NCAA programs and veteran players with Olympic and extensive National Team experience.
