Slovenian women's ice hockey European Nations Cup

Overview

The Slovenian women's national ice hockey team participated in the inaugural European Nations Cup held in Sosnowiec, Poland, finishing the tournament with three losses.

Slovenia opened the competition on October 15 with a 4-2 defeat against Spain, with goals scored by Maša Ankele and Pia Pren. This was followed by a 4-0 loss to the host nation, Poland, during which goalkeeper Ajde Jošt recorded 83 saves. The team concluded the tournament on October 17 with a 6-0 loss to Great Britain.

Regarding the defeat against Great Britain, coach Boštjan Kos attributed the outcome to a ten-minute period of indiscipline and a lack of responsibility during the first period, noting that Great Britain established a 5-0 lead within the first 20 minutes. Kos stated the tournament provides valuable experience for younger players and increased playing time for those less accustomed to international competition. The tournament was established by the IIHF to provide competitive opportunities following schedule changes for major world championships. The team is scheduled to compete again in February in Glasgow, Scotland, against Spain, the Netherlands, and Great Britain.
