PWHL Begins Expansion Process for up to Two More Teams

The PWHL is looking to add two more franchises to begin as early as 2025, a quick expansion for the women’s hockey league that began play last year.

The league is launching a request for proposal (RFP) process for prospective new clubs, according to Amy Scheer, the PWHL’s senior vice president of business operations. They’ve asked groups to submit plans for how the single-entity league, financed initially by Mark and Kimbra Walter, might best open up to new fans, partners and athletes.
