History Begins
On Oct. 11, 2015 the National Women's Hockey League began its inaugural season. After training camps throughout the summer, a draft on June 20th, media days, practices and much anticipation, the women of the NWHL suited up and hit the ice for what would mark the official start of the first professional women's hockey league to pay its players. This series of photographs documents the Boston Pride, one of four NWHL teams making a run for the Isobel Cup and the first ever title of National Women's Hockey League Champions. A selection of my photos accompany an article about the NWHL in the Washington Post.
