DraftKings is expanding in women’s sports and continue to provide awareness to existing and new leagues. Speaking of new, the PWHL is the latest women’s sport to be offered on DraftKings Sportsbook after their inaugural season kicked off in 2024. What is the PWHL? Let’s break it down!
PWHL
The Professional Women’s Hockey League features six total teams—the Boston Fleet, Minnesota Frost, Montréal Victoire, New York Sirens, Ottawa Charges and Toronto Sceptres. After many attempts to unify women’s ice hockey in North America, the PWHL was officially birthed in June of 2023 as a result of the Premier Hockey Federation (PHF) and nonprofit Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association (PWHPA) banding together. Backed by funding from Los Angeles Dodgers co-owner Mark Walter and his wife, Kimbra Walter, the PWHL hit the ground running with their first game on the inaugural season on January 1st, 2024.
The second season of the PWHL began on November 30th, 2024 and will run through May of 2025, with each team playing 30 contests. As for the post-season, the top four teams will qualify and play in a playoff format consisting of two best-of-five-game series.
