The Professional Women’s Hockey League played a first season and started a second , the Northern Super League fired its engines for an all- Canadian women's soccer launch.

The PWHL, with three Canadian and three U.S. teams, is a single entity and geographically centralized in central and eastern North America .

The Toronto Tempo joining the WNBA in 2026 is backed by deep-pocketed Canadian sports mogul Larry Tanenbaum .

The PWHL entered into exclusivity agreements with Canadian broadcasters in its second season .

“What we’ve seen in one year with the PWHL sort of blew all of our minds,” Saunders said. “It’s going to continue to be an explosion as the NSL comes online and the Toronto Tempo as well.
