Female Midget hockey is open to female player ages 15 to 17 years old.  The growth of female hockey continues to allow for opportunities for girls to play on all-female teams, depending on the availability of female players/teams and the interests/skills of the players.  Many opportunities exist for female players, from playing in a recreational league to Female Midget A to Female Midget AA in a provincial league.  Presently, VUAHA offers a Female Midget Recreational Division and a Female Midget A Division.  The Female Midget ‘A’s compete within the District for the opportunity to represent Vancouver Island at the BC Hockey Provincial Championships.  In addition, Vancouver Island also has a Female Midget AAA District team, which plays against other District Female teams, with the champion having the opportunity to compete nationally at the Esso Midget Female National Championships.

As part of BC Hockey’s Female High Performance Program, players are also eligible to attend and try out for the U18 District Team, which participates in a weekend Provincial Challenge Cup.  Players are identified here and then may be invited to take part in tryouts for Team BC, which represents British Columbia at the Canada Winter Games or the U18 National Championships.  It is from these venues that possible future Olympians can be identified.  Opportunities also exist for female players at all levels to be scouted and receive scholarships to attend Colleges and/or Universities in both Canada and the USA.
