The Professional Women's Hockey League announced its first-ever all-star competition will be held in Toronto at Scotiabank Arena, with players competing in a four-team, three-on-three tournament on March 7.
The tournament will take place in a round-robin format, with teams broken down into PWHL Canada, PWHL International, PWHL USA, and PWHL Rookies.
A combination of fan, player and media voting will determine the selection of all-star starters. League hockey operations will select reserve players.
The announcement comes ahead of the league's fourth season, amid record growth in attendance.
"The PWHL was built to feature the best players in the world, and now fans will see the highest level of skill in women’s hockey showcased in a new and unique way,” PWHL executive-vice president of hockey operations Jayna Hefford said in a statement.
TSN will provide English-language coverage of the all-star game and CBC/Radio-Canada French-language coverage in Canada
