Canlan Sports (ICE) is teaming up with Cammi Granato to launch the CCT Cammi Granato Showcase Series in Chicago, Toronto and Vancouver.

Cammi, an NHL pro scout who was inducted into the US Hockey Hall of Fame in 2008, is the most decorated women’s player in United States hockey history.

“I’m thrilled to be teaming up with Canlan to bring female youth hockey tournaments to select cities in North America,” she remarked.

“In addition to the tournament, we are excited to add a few extra elements to make it a truly memorable hockey experience for the entire family.”

Canlan Sports has shown a commitment to growing youth female hockey for nearly a decade, and teaming up with the most decorated women’s player in USA Hockey history will provide the community a unique, one-of-a-kind experience that will connect families with the game they love in new, memorable ways.

“Our focus is growing female hockey. In 2019, we hosted seven youth female-specific events, with over 300 teams across North America. Joining forces with a legend like Cammi is our next step in showing that commitment.”

“We don’t just want to host events,” he added. “We want to lead change and create opportunities for players to showcase their talent, hard work and dedication to the game of hockey. These events will be much more than just tournaments, they will be festivals celebrating the female game.”

More tournament event details and dates will be announced at a later time.
