On Wednesday, March 12, 2008, women's hockey at the University of New Brunswick was cut from Varsity status. Implications regarding how the sports continue at the university level are different depending on the sport. Women’s Hockey is the only sport which will no longer be eligible to play in the AUS and CIS divisions and there are no apparent club teams available, thus leaving these athletes without the opportunity to play.
If you are a supporter of female hockey and if you are hoping to continue your education at a CIS institution while playing varsity women's hockey, support us by signing our petition and joining our facebook group.
