PWHL Sets U.S. Women's Hockey Attendance Record, Surpasses One Million Fans
The Professional Women’s Hockey League (PWHL) set a new attendance record for women's hockey in the U.S. with 14,288 fans at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, where the New York Sirens defeated the Minnesota Frost 4-1. This game also marked a significant milestone as the league surpassed one million fans in attendance since its inception on January 1, 2024. The PWHL's rapid growth, evidenced by the achievement of over 1 million fans and an average attendance of more than 7,000 per game this season, reflects the increasing popularity of professional women's hockey. The league celebrated this milestone during the game with a special event where players from both teams distributed commemorative pucks to fans. Looking ahead, the PWHL plans to expand by introducing two new teams for the 2025-26 season, with cities like Detroit, Pittsburgh, Washington D.C., and Philadelphia as potential candidates. Jayna Hefford, the league's Executive Vice President, emphasized the dedication of players and support from fans as key factors in this achievement.
