This weekend, the Polish women’s hockey team, playing under the name TAURON Metropolia Silesia in the European Women’s Hockey League (EWHL), will take on Kazakhstan’s Aisulu Almaty in Austria. The matches, scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, are crucial as the Poles aim for their first victory of the season against the league’s second-placed team. Aisulu currently holds 10 points in the standings, while Poland is in 9th place after four games.
Challenging Start for the Polish Team
The Polish side, nicknamed „Hockey Eagles,” has struggled to find momentum in the new season. In their previous encounters, they faced tough defeats against Italy’s EVB Eagles South Tyrol (1-4, 6-7) and MAC Budapest (0-1, 1-3). With matches scheduled at 16:15 on Saturday and 10:30 on Sunday, the team hopes to turn their luck around on Austrian ice.
Looking Ahead
Despite a difficult start, the Polish squad is determined to climb the EWHL standings. With Aisulu Almaty serving as formidable opponents, the weekend games will be a test of the team’s resolve and growth in this highly competitive league.
