  • The Women's Euro Hockey Tour showed the gap between the PWHL and other leagues is already expanding, and it's an issue the PWHL must address with a formal development plan, before it's too late.

The article from The Hockey News discusses the Women's Euro Hockey Tour, highlighting the disparity in development and support between European women's hockey teams and the newly established Professional Women's Hockey League (PWHL) in North America. It points out that while the PWHL has made significant strides in professionalizing women's hockey, European teams, particularly those from Finland, Sweden, and Germany, still face challenges due to limited resources and infrastructure. The tour showcased the need for a structured development plan in Europe to elevate the level of play and competitiveness, similar to what the PWHL is attempting to do. The article suggests that for women's hockey to grow globally, there must be an investment in development programs, better facilities, and increased exposure for European players, which could potentially lead to a more balanced international competition and support the growth of the sport worldwide.
