@thisbrokenmusic @SeattleKraken The 12U announcement came only after the fact. To be clear this is my axe to grind, not @WWFHA or their board. I hope that female hockey flourishes under them. But some of us that fought for them feel used and thrown out. This should have been a partnership not a slow death.

@Sounder2thecore @SeattleKraken The five new teams are in addition to the two they had this year. Net gain for the girls hockey in this age range. Sounds like growing the game to me.

A year after featuring our organization as they had at launch, team announcement, they begin the process of forcing us out to make room for boys AAA. It's always the same girls and sports are the last priority. @SeattleKraken I hoped you were different. twitter.com/Sounder2thecor…

@thisbrokenmusic @SeattleKraken Agreed

@Sounder2thecore @SeattleKraken I sympathize and worry for the Wild, but this does not necessarily hurt girls hockey.

So here is the IG post regarding the Kraken forcing our 12U Rec team off of the ice. We suffered a 60% cut at ⁦@KrakenIceplex⁩ and our 12 U rec players are forced to other organizations due to limited resources. Eg ice instagram.com/reel/CqClfU0NP…

@playdagger4me2 If you have any influence at present we need ice time. Long-term we need to fundraise to build a rink. Thank you so much for asking. More to come on long-term planning but our biggest concern is finding a home for our 18 12U Rec players.

@Sounder2thecore What can we do to help?

As we near the end of our 2022-2023 season Despite seeing record numbers in growth and demand for our programs, and despite the public support from the Kraken as the Wild stood on stage with them when the 32nd franchise was announced, (5)

journalists, podcasters, and writers that I respect and reaching out because these young women deserve to play this great game and not be forced from the ice by the boys yet again. Please see the following from our board: (4)

time cut we won’t be able to provide for them and the Kraken are not icing a program. This also stings because it comes on the heels of the Kraken releasing a PR message touting their growth of the game the same day we got the message below. I wanted to reach out to youallas (3)

forced off of the ice. I reach out to you all to spread the word. Our 8-12U girls nearly all of which went through our Lean to Play were featured between periods at the Kraken Women in Hockey night. Those same young women will be left without a program next year, a 60% ice (2)

All, I have been a board member, coach, parent for @WWFHA for the past 8 years. Our teams, players, parents, and board lobbied the Seattle City Council to sell the importance of the Kraken coming to Seattle for youth hockey. We share their practice facilities and are now (1)

So I’m in the same suite as Marshawn Lynch…

@dfpendrys Hope@that this passes soon. Wishing you well.
