National Champions
The Canadian Interuniversity Sport women's ice hockey championship is awarded annually to the Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) women's ice hockey champions. The championship has been competed for in the CIS since 1998, when the sport was established in the league. Previously, the most important Canadian university women's ice hockey championship was the one from the Women's Intercollegiate Athletic Union (WIAU) (from 1921 till 1971), along with that of the Ontario Women's Interuniversity Athletic Association (OWIAA) (from 1972 till 1997) which awarded the Dr. Judy McCaw trophy to the team champion.
