Do you love hockey? Do you love women (loaded question, right?) The National Women's Hockey League has been thriving since its inception in 2015. You may be asking - there has only been a national women's hockey league for SIX years?! YES. There is a ton that we don't know about women's sports, particularly women's hockey. As the NWHL looks to complete it's sixth season, let's take a dive and learn a bit more about the league, the incredible women behind it's growth, and how it functions. We are joined for PART 2 of our discussion with NWHLPA Director Anya Packer - former Connecticut Whale defenseman, and Forbes 30 under 30 businesswoman that the forefront of advocacy for women's rights and representation in hockey. Anya explains to us about how she got to where she is, her choice to advocate in business rather than on the ice, and what the league is doing in the near and long-term to grow moving forward. Check it out, and JOIN us in helping both Anya AND the NWHL spread awareness on their sport!Support Slapshot Sweethearts by donating to their Tip Jar: https://tips.pinecast.com/jar/slapshot-sweetheartsFind out more at https://slapshot-sweethearts.pinecast.coLearn more about your ad choices.
