After a lot of searching, Les Canadiennes have officially found their new long-term home.
The team, the city of Montreal and borough of Verdun have reached an agreement in principle that will see the team move their base to the Verdun Auditorium after the upcoming renovations which is expected be completed in 2019.
The Auditorium will also be the team’s official training centre.
“It is a great day for women’s elite sports in Montreal,” said Les Canadiennes general manager Meg Hewings. “It’s hard to find yourself a home in life let alone with 25 women. What is really fun is to have a home base and a concrete infrastructure that we can call our own and start to develop and build on.
