Over the course of the WNHL’s stellar history players and management have always tossed around ways to give the regular season more pop and meaning. In May at the WNHL AGM for 2024 the WNHL Leadership Team created the first WNHL In-Season Tournament.
- Single Elimination style tournament for three weeks starting the first Wednesday in November
- The winning team after the 3 Week tournament will receive one point to put away for the upcoming 2024-2025 playoff standings to help improve their chances of being King Street Cup Champs.
- All wins and loses and player points still fit into regular season standings.
- NHL Style Shootout if the game is tied after regulation (each team will pick it’s own players)
- Teams eliminated will be re-seeded on their current regular season standings for the remaining two weeks.
- The tournament match-ups you see above were created by an automated tournament maker
Should be a lot of fun and something that we can build from for future seasons. More exciting updates for the 2024-2025 season await as we build towards the draft.
