Girl’s Hockey Takes Center Stage

Smashville Girls Showcase Preview


Nashville is the place to be this Thanksgiving Weekend for Girls and Women’s Hockey. TPH and PIP, Premier Ice Prospects, are proud to host the Smashville Girls Showcase at the Ford Ice Centers in Nashville, Tennessee. In addition to the 32 Girls AAA teams in attendance, there will be four NCAA Division I Women’s Hockey programs in town for the Smashville Women’s Collegiate Hockey Showcase.

 

The Women’s and Girl’s Hockey worlds will share the spotlight this weekend with 72 youth hockey games on top of the two-day collegiate showcase that will highlight the best of the NCAA’s women hockey players. Last year Mekenzie Steffen competed in the collegiate event as captain of the University of Wisconsin Badgers, presently she now has the opportunity to see this weekend from the administrative side as the Coordinator of Girls Hockey for TPH-Nashville.

 

It’s one of those incredible ‘if you see it, you can be it’ opportunities for all of the young girls,” said Steffen. “Growing up in Minnesota, I was able to attend Golden Gophers women’s hockey games growing up, but several girls don’t have this opportunity. I am excited to see so many teams coming from places where the girls don’t have the opportunity to watch NCAA women’s hockey in person, to not only witness, but play alongside them in the same building and share the weekend.”

 

The Smashville Women’s Collegiate Hockey Showcase will feature Boston College, Colgate University, Mercyhurst University, and the University of Minnesota competing over November 26-27 at the Ford Ice Center. Single-day standard and VIP tickets can be purchased HERE. Use promo code PREDSGIRLS to save.

 

“It is just as meaningful to the college players to see all of the young girls in the stands watching the games.” Steffen says, “You know they’re all looking up to you, hoping to be in your shoes one day. Those are the humbling moments that you never take for granted as a college athlete.”

The 2021 Jr. Predators Tier I Host Weekend will be TPH’s first tournament of the season in Nashville and it is primed for some highly competitive competition amongst top Tier I programs in the nation. We are so thankful for everything that the Nashville Predators have done to make this event come to life. It will be a memorable weekend for all. Below is an overview of the event.
