To any Hockey Canada fans who are all bummed that the boys at the world juniors just got knocked out in the quarter finals, fear not! Because the IIHF U18 Women’s World Championship begins THIS Saturday when Canada plays Slovakia at 1:30pm EST! More Canadian hockey! Yay! Support the U18 women and tune in if you’re able!

U18 Women's World Championship 2025: What To Know

The U18 Women’s World Championship for the top division in women’s hockey starts today! Here is everything you need to know. 

WHO

The tournament is divided into Groups A and B. 

Group A consists of Finland, Japan, USA, and Sweden,

Group B consists of Czechia, Canada, Slovakia, and Switzerland. 

All rosters are here 

WHAT

A round-robin series in each group will rank each teams before all eight go to the quarterfinals in the following format: 1A vs. 4B, 1B vs. 4A, 2A vs. 3B and 2B vs. 3A. The two last placed teams will play a relegation round. Full rules here. 

WHEN

Schedule: January 4th to January 12th

Yes, like this morning. Most of these games will start before noon for you if you are in North America. 

WHERE

The games are in Vantaa, Finland. 

TSN will air all games that have USA and Canada, and NHL Network will air all games that have USA, but only using TSN’s broadcast. Winning gold in the previous year, unfortunately, does not constitute getting your own home broadcast for USA hockey. In Finland, matches will be on TV5 channel and Max streaming service. Unfortunately, I struggled to find broadcast information for the remaining countries. If anyone has more information, please add! 

WHY? 

The U18 Worlds fucking rules. We’ve had two major upsets (Czechia over Canada, Sweden over USA) in the semifinals in the last two years. This is your first chance to lay eyes on some of the future stars of women’s hockey. If you’re older than 18 you get to have a crisis about how old you are. It’s the best. 

I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THESE TEAMS? 

I did a (very deep) dive into each and every team, complete with expectations for each team, standout player/storylines, and some highlights. If interested, you can read here.

And now for the news you’ve all been waiting for — with her assist today in Slovakia’s elimination game, Nela Lopušanová (Bishop Kearney/Wisconsin) finishes WU18s with a point on every goal for her team.

Every.

Single.

One.

Oh, and this isn’t even her only sport. She’s also nominated for women’s flag football player of the year.
