WHL Mission Statement
To provide an opportunity for adult females of any caliber to play hockey in a league which emphasizes fun, friendship & respect for fellow participants. 


Thank you to all players, timekeepers, referees, league managers, league executive and team captains for a successful and memorable 2025–2026 season.  It truly takes a village. 

A special acknowledgment goes to Sydney Duggan, who, in her first year as Ice Scheduler, successfully coordinated nearly 500 league games. Your dedication and attention to detail had a tremendous impact—excellent work, Sydney.

And last, but certainly not least, thank you to Teri Bonnell. Your first year as League Commissioner was seamless. The role requires significant effort and leadership, and we sincerely appreciate all that you do.

Edwards, new to the WHL this year, plays for Jaytec in Beer League. 
It is believed they are the very first grandmother-granddaughter duo
to play at the same time in the WHL!! If you know otherwise, send
us a message to set the record straight.  Congratulations Deb and Jaylin. 
A proud moment indeed.
