On International Women's Day, Natalie Spooner swapped her #24 jersey for #23 as part of the PWHL's 23-Hour Play campaign with IWD this year being only 23 hours due to Daylight Savings.

Donate $23 to help girls get in, and stay in, the game! Proceeds will benefit @GrindstoneAward.

When the day got shorter, the message got louder 🗣️

Anne Cherkowski, Natalie Spooner, and Vanessa Upson traded their 24s for 23s in recognition of the 23-hour International Women’s Day. And now it is our turn. Donate $23 to help girls get in, and stay in, the game!

24 hours? Not this year. 🤷‍♀️

International Women’s Day comes up one hour short this year. So today, PWHL players who wear 24 are wearing 23 — a reminder that when women get less, the answer is to give women’s sports more. This International Women’s Day, donate $23 to help girls get in, and stay in, the game.

An incredible day for our GTA-based grant recipients thanks to the generosity of BGO, Menkes Developments, One York, and the @NHLPA.
