Celebrating the incredible women across the CHL on National Girls and Women in Sports Day
On National Girls and Women in Sports Day, we celebrate the incredible women across the Canadian Hockey League that make a difference on a day-to-day basis.
At the CHL office, a variety of women leaders direct efforts in the area of finance, events, marketing, digital and corporate partnerships.
“Women are an integral part of the Canadian Hockey League, driving our game forward both on and off the ice. They are breaking barriers, shaping the future, and proving that the game thrives when everyone has a place on the ice,” said Dan MacKenzie, President of the CHL. “On National Girls and Women in Sports Day, we celebrate their impact and reaffirm our commitment to ensuring hockey is a place where everyone can thrive.”
Carla Keller, Tiffany Gordon, Nikki deCarle, Elicia Stevens, Alysia Olsen, Caroline Vanasse, Andrea Crema, Steph Keller, Stephanie Friedman and Lee-Anne Pastushak all hold impactful roles in a variety of departments within the CHL office where they act as difference-makers in their areas of expertise.
Furthermore, women also hold prominent roles across the OHL, QMJHL and WHL in officiating as well as hockey and business operations.
