PWHL Award Ceremony Set For June 25 In Ottawa
The PWHL will host their 2025 Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, June 25 at 11:30 a.m. ET at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in the Hard Rock Live theatre in Ottawa, Ontario.
It follows the 2025 PWHL Draft which will take place the night before in the same venue.
Finalists for the PWHL's six major awards will be announced beginning May 13 with the league's Forward of the Year finalists, followed by Defender of the Year (May 14), Goaltender of the Year (May 15), Coach of the Year (May 20), Rookie of the Year (May 21) and Billie Jean King MVP Award (May 22).
This year the PWHL's Rookie of the Year will include 1999 born players and younger who are completing their first season of professional hockey in North America.
At the ceremony, the league will also honour this year's top scorers - Hilary Knight and Sarah Fillier - and their Hockey For All Award recipient.
Last year, Toronto Sceptres forward Natalie Spooner was named the Forward of the Year and MVP. Erin Ambrose of the Montreal Victoire was the inaugural Defender of the Year, while Toronto's Kristen Campbell was the league's first Goaltender of the Year. Grace Zumwinkle of the Minnesota Frost was the league's first Rookie of the Year.
