More Than a Hockey Trip.

Four countries, one summer hockey journey through the heart of Central Europe.

Built for current college hockey players, the adventure starts in Budapest with games, thermal baths and fun nights before following the Danube to Bratislava and Vienna. From there, head into the Austrian Alps for more hockey and a day by the lake before crossing into Slovenia, where Ljubljana and Lake Bled provide a pretty spectacular final stretch.

Take the Ice Across Europe.

Match up with local clubs in Hungary, Slovakia, Austria and Slovenia, then share the moments after the game with the people who make hockey part of their community.

Summer Between Games.

Soak in Budapest, swim in Lake Wörthersee and trade the rink for the turquoise water and mountain backdrop of Lake Bled.

Bled Hockey Day.

Take the ice alongside teams from four countries, then spend the rest of the day exploring one of Slovenia’s most iconic settings — cream cake, lake swim and all.

FAQs

Our women’s hockey tours feature games against local teams in the countries we visit. We do our best to arrange competitive matchups that reflect the experience and ability of our travelling roster. The level and style of play can vary from country to country, giving our players a unique opportunity to experience international hockey firsthand.

Our women’s hockey teams are made up of current and former college and university players from across Canada and the USA. Players come from different schools, conferences, and playing backgrounds, but share a common love for hockey and travel. It’s a chance to meet new teammates, compete alongside players from other programs, and build friendships that extend well beyond the rink.

We aim to keep ice time as balanced as possible, giving everyone meaningful opportunities to contribute throughout the tour. Our focus is on creating a competitive but enjoyable team environment where every player feels involved. We’re here to compete, experience a new part of the world, and enjoy the game together.

Our players join us from colleges, universities, and hometowns across North America, so we offer the flexibility to depart from your preferred airport. As licensed travel agents, we’ll help recommend flights and coordinate arrival times with the rest of the team. We also do our best to connect players departing from the same city so they can travel together.
