60 girls at the Girls Try Hockey for Free event Sunday

flew out for the free event

On Sunday, nearly 60 girls signed up for the Western Washington Female Hockey Association (WWFHA) Girls' Try Hockey for Free event at Highland Ice Arena in Shoreline. It was the female hockey association's biggest free event to date.

WWFHA's coaches, student-coaches, and members of the hockey community came out in force to support every new skater that wanted to try the sport of ice hockey, in an open and welcoming environment.

The group was also visited by Wild Bird, WWFHA and the Washington Wild team's mascot, who flew in to welcome the participants! 

There were smiles on and off the ice at the event with many signing up for WWFHA's Learn to Play Hockey class that starts on January 14th at Highland, every Sunday from 11:30am - 12:30pm.

The next Girls' Try Hockey for Free event will be held on March 10th at 5:00pm.
