No tryouts. No pressure. No having to choose between sport and the rest of your life. League of Girls is where you play, grow, and belong, on your own terms.
of girls say they'd stay in sport if they felt supported. So we're building something that does just that.
girls have found their game in the last 3 years
enrollment growth (because word spreads fast when sport is fun)
By the time girls hit their teens, almost half have already quit sport.
Not because they don't love it. But because the system wasn't built for them.
Too intense. Too competitive. Too all-or-nothing.
League of Girls is something different: A place to play that doesn't ask you to sacrifice everything else to get in the game.
Rolling admission and flexible entry points. You're never "too old." You can start whenever you're ready (and bring a friend).
Once-a-week, weeknight sessions focused on progress, not perfection and competition.
Paid, trained coaches and mentors leading every session so you can see yourself not just as a player, but as a future leader too.
The League of Girls CoLab brings teen girls into the decisions, shaping programs, partnerships and what comes next.
As the mom of three girls, I spent years searching across the Greater Toronto Area for a recreational hockey program that fit real life. Something once a week, on weeknights, where girls could play for fun, fitness and connection.
There was nothing. So I decided to build it.
The idea was simple: create a hockey experience designed for girls who wanted a place to start, or a place to stay, without the pressure of traditional pathways.
That idea became the Tween Girls’ Hockey League.
We started in 2021–22 with 15 girls, many of whom had never played. By the end of that first season, we had grown to 40 girls who'd found not just a sport, but a place they wanted to be.
What’s become clear since then is that this wasn’t limited to hockey.
Girls are looking for something different in sport. Something that fits their lives, feels social and supportive, and makes them want to keep showing up.
That’s what led to the next step.
Today, the Tween Girls’ Hockey League is evolving into League of Girls: a multi-sport community designed around how girls actually want to experience sport.
We’re just getting started.
