Celebrate heritage, creativity, and excellence with the Adult PWHL Black History Celebration Jersey, featuring an exclusive design by illustrator and graphic designer Sophia Yeshi. Known for her bold colors and joyful, organic style, Yeshi brings her vision to life with a hockey crest that uplifts Black women, women of color, and the LGBTQIA+ community. The vibrant front crest is crafted in pro twill with an embroidered stitched outline and embroidered detailing, giving the artwork depth, texture, and a premium finish. Built on a fully sublimated jersey base, the artwork and colors are seamlessly integrated into the fabric for long‑lasting comfort and durability. At the center, two Black women hockey players stand in front of a rising sun, symbolizing growth, progress, and a bright future for the sport. The bold colors are inspired by the Pan‑African flag and celebrate Black culture, while mirrored elements and shining stars add a dynamic nod to classic hockey visuals. This limited‑edition jersey is a meaningful way to honor Black History while proudly supporting the PWHL.
The PWHL’s Black History Celebration Unity Games extend beyond the game itself, centering community impact and meaningful support. As part of this initiative, the PWHL will be making a donation to support Seaside Hockey, an organization dedicated to creating greater access and opportunity within hockey. This effort reflects the PWHL’s ongoing commitment to celebrating Black history while supporting organizations that are helping to shape a more inclusive future for the sport.
