It was announced that the 2021 Western Regional Women’s U18 Championship will be held in place of the cancelled NWU-18 event in 2021. The four-team tournament will be hosted in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba from November 2 to 6, 2021.
Team Saskatchewan’s female program is coming off a Silver Medal performance at the 2019 National Women’s Under-18 Championship.
