Rose Misiewicz Tabbed Assistant Coach

The roster for the 2018-19 U.S. Women’s Development Sled Hockey Team was announced today by USA Hockey and features 18 players, including three goaltenders, six defensemen and nine forwards. The 2018-19 season marks the first season the team is under full governance of USA Hockey.

“We’re excited to welcome the women’s national sled development team to the USA Hockey family formally,” said Pat Kelleher, executive director of USA Hockey. “While it’s a program that has been in existence since 2007 and the USA Hockey Foundation has supported it in some fashion for a number of years, it’s a program that is now fully part of USA Hockey and we look forward to its continued evolution.”

This year’s selection camp was held in Voorhees, N.J., at the Virtual Flyers Skate Zone as part of the 2018 Girls/Women’s Sled Hockey Development Camp.
