Despite the downsides the women league faces, the player

The Canadian women were a huge influence to developing ice hockey for women and are the reason for the growth of the sport in other countries. One individual that does redefine the sport of ice hockey is Manon Rheaume who fought the barriers of integration. Manon’s efforts and determination to challenge her abilities was one of the biggest developments in women’s hockey. No only was Manon making a statement during her career but she was bringing attention to women’s ice hockey. Through Manon’s task oriented goals of challenging her abilities she became a part of the men’s team. She proved not only that she was good enough to play at a high level but also that women are highly capable to compete with the men through the act of integration of sexes.

In 1950 all throughout Canada, the interest in women playing hockey decreased due to World War II ending. During the war, when men left to serve in the army, women were often seen taking their place in sports. This had CCM create their own line of women specific hockey skates and equipment. Once the men returned from the war, women were encouraged to stop playing in sports and working, due to issues with their femininity and the traditional gender roles (that women should not participate in sports that did not emphasize their beauty or femininity). Once the war came to an end, the line that CCM created also was discontinued. This was a major factor that emphasized equality issues, since women were proven when the men were abroad, that they could equally play sports and work, they should be allowed to continue to do so. However, it took many decades for women to be seen equal not only in the workforce but in sports too.

Passerbys walked along the streets, bundled up in warm clothes, birds sang their melodies, children were in school, adults were working, and children were born. One of these children, however, would go on to make a name for herself almost halfway across the world on a small and somewhat reclusive island in America.

She has appeared in (more than two, but not a lot of) films directed by her brother Mike Jones: "The Fun trip of Faustus Bidgood"(1986), "Secret Nation"(1992) and "The Short Congratulations"(2000); and in the (funny scenes about death, murder, etc.) "Young Triffie"(2007), directed by Mart Walsh.

As a sport industry women are just beginning, and that means we will be seeing more women entering the sport field. Jen Welter, is now the first female coach in NFL history, she will be the coach of the inside linebackers for the Arizona Cardinals (Nichols,2015). Women are starting to make their appearance, but it’s a real struggle. These women are helping shape the game by being coaches, but what about them playing. Especially with hockey, since it’s a fast paced game, with a lot of roughhousing and really big guys. For women to enter the NHL they are going to have to be ready for a challenge. It would make us have a different outlook on the way the game is played. There have been a few females to play in professional hockey, just not in a full season with an NHL team.
