BROOKLYN, NY, – Jersey designs for Team Ott and Team Leveille for the 2018 NWHL All-Star Game next month in Saint Paul, Minnesota were unveiled today. The jerseys are by M Style Marketing, the global strategy, marketing and branding agency that created the new brand identity for the Boston Pride, as well as the jerseys for Team NWHL’s series against Team USA in Tampa earlier this month.
In partnership with the NHL’s Minnesota Wild, NWHL All-Star Weekend will take place Feb. 10-11 at TRIA Rink, the Wild’s state-of-the-art Practice Facility in downtown Saint Paul. The captains of the teams are Buffalo Beauts goaltender Amanda Leveille, an Isobel Cup champion in 2017 who played at the University of Minnesota from 2012-2016, and Boston Pride goaltender Brittany Ott, an Isobel Cup champion in 2016 who was raised in Michigan.
After All-Star Weekend, jerseys will be available at auction at MeiGray – the Official Game-Worn Source of the NWHL – at meigrayauctions.com. “As the NWHL grows in popularity, so does the demand for the players’ game-worn jerseys,” said MeiGray President Barry Meisel. “These All-Star jerseys will likely be the most sought-after sets yet.”
The NWHL Skills Challenge will take place on Saturday, Feb. 10 at 6:45 p.m. CT. The All-Star Game, which will consist of two 25-minute halves, is on Sunday, Feb. 11 at 11:30 a.m. CT. Tickets are available now at NWHL.zone/tickets. Skills Challenge tickets are $15, All-Star Game seats are $25 and an All-Star Weekend Package with both events is available for $35. There will be an autograph session with the players after both events for all ticketholders.
