League Hockey

WACH League Regular Season

PPWHF is a member of the Women's Association of Colorado Hockey (WACH)! WACH is a state-wide travel league comprised of more than 30 teams across four divisions. The season typically runs from October to April.

Each August, PPWHF holds Team Formation sessions for all registered players in preparation of upcoming season. During these sessions, players participate in a series of skating and hockey drills, followed by a short scrimmage. Coaches use these evaluations to determine the number of teams the organization can field and to place players on the team that best matches their current skill level, development, and team chemistry.

After Team Formation, players are offered a roster spot on a specific team. Players who are not offered a spot on one of our competetive teams are welcome to join our developmental team (Gray Wolves), where they can continue to build their skills in a supportive and encouraging environment.

In the 2025-2026 season, PPWHF had 3 teams that played in the WACH league - Silverwolves (A), Timberwolves (C), and Arcticwolves (D). Each division team plays 10-16 regular season games and competes in the WACH State Tournament.

Each team has volunteer coaches dedicated to helping their players grow and improve on the ice for every game. Every season has roughly 13 practices. For information about our 3 division teams click a drop down option below!

How are Team Determinations made?

Volunteer coaches determine team compositions based on their player evaluations at Team Formation, practices, friends and family games, and previous Wolves participation.

What is Team Formation?

Team Formation is held every August and is the Wolves "tryouts." During Team Formation, players participate in a series of skating and hockey drills, followed by a short scrimmage. Coaches use these evaluations to determine the number of teams the organization can field and to place players on the team that best matches their current skill level, development, and team chemistry. All abilities are welcome and it's completely free!

What if I'm unable to attend/miss Team Formation, but want to be rostered on a team?

No worries! Please complete your PPWHF registration and RSVP "no" to Team Formation. We will work with you to find another time to be evaluated by coaches such as a practice or Friends & Family game. If we are unable to find a time that works between Team Formation and the start of WACH Games, coaches will roster you based on previous playing experience to get started, and will reevaluate during the season to make sure you're playing at the most appropriate skill level.

When and where are WACH Games played?

The WACH regular season runs Mid-October through March with a State Tournament the first or second weekend in April.

WACH Games take place across the state with half of the games played at Home (World Arena) and the other half played across Pueblo, Denver, Ft. Collins, Greeley and Steamboat Springs.
