GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — World Para Ice Hockey says it’s bringing the first-ever Para Ice Hockey Women’s World Challenge to Green Bay this month.
Four teams will compete in a round-robin style tournament Aug. 26 through 28 at the Cornerstone Community Center.
The teams will be from the U.S., Canada, Great Britain, and there will also be a Team World, which will be made up of athletes from different nations.
The organization says this event is the first step to an eventual Women’s World Championship. It hopes to expand female participation in Para Ice Hockey worldwide, ultimately having women’s Para Ice Hockey recognized in the Paralympics some day.
