Goldeneyes Open First PWHL Camp as Pacific Coliseum Debuts $6 Million Upgrade

Vancouver is the league’s only sole-tenant team with its logo at centre ice, underscoring a distinct identity ahead of the Nov. 21 home opener.

Overview

  • Training camp began Nov. 10 at the Pacific Coliseum with 32 players on the ice, including Sarah Nurse, Jenn Gardiner, Claire Thompson and goalie Emerance Maschmeyer.
  • PNE completed roughly $6 million in arena improvements, highlighted by a new Samsung centre-hung videoboard, upgraded lighting, renovated dressing rooms, enhanced boards and broadcast capabilities.
  • The Goldeneyes are the only PWHL club with year-round centre-ice branding, reflecting their status as the Coliseum’s primary tenant and emphasizing a strong local footprint.
  • Practice facilities at the nearby Agrodome were also upgraded with a new ice floor, boards, a renovated dressing room and team offices to support daily operations.
  • Vancouver hosts the Seattle Torrent in its inaugural regular-season game on Nov. 21, with early demand strong and the lower bowl showing limited ticket availability for pairs.
