For young female hockey players in the area, the opportunity to watch some of the best players in North America is a dream come true. “I’m really excited to see them play for the first time, like in real life,” said 13-year-old Caseley Griffin, who plays for the Western Wind. “I’m really happy that female hockey is getting more talked about and stuff.”
The Rivalry Series, which has been ongoing since 2018, showcases the intense competition between the Canadian and American national teams. With Canada leading the rivalry 103-78, the stakes are higher than ever. The event is expected to draw in large crowds and provide a significant boost to the local economy.
JP Desrosiers, Summerside’s deputy chief administrative officer, expressed his delight at securing the event, saying, “It’s a major win for us. We’ve been after this event for two to three years now… To finally secure it is a fantastic opportunity not only for us in the province and the city of Summerside, but also for female hockey players right across the province.”

The game also marks a significant milestone in the growth of women’s hockey in Canada. As Ellie Silliker, a 13-year-old defender for the Summerside Inferno, noted, “My mom said when she was a little girl, it was just like boys, and then girls only had like a small league… Now it’s getting bigger, and more people like to play hockey as girls.”
The event is not just about the game itself, but also about inspiring the next generation of female hockey players. “It just really inspires me to keep working so I can get to that point… because you see all these professional hockey players, and they’re just working so hard to get to where they are today,” said Cara Blacquiere, a 13-year-old player for the Western Wind.
