Las Vegas’ newest team has a brand new leader. The PWHL announced today the hiring of Dominique DiDia as the general manager of the soon-to-be-named team in Las Vegas.

DiDia launched the Women’s Hockey Department at CAA Sports, one of the largest sports agencies in the world. She began her post-playing hockey career with the LA Kings where she spent nine years rising to the role of Director of Marketing. During her playing days, she was the captain at Trinity College. 

She’ll take control of the Vegas organization charged with building the staff and roster in preparation for the 2026-27 season.  

Representation matters, and I am proud to build an organization that will inspire the next generation of girls to see a future for themselves at the highest level of this sport. I cannot wait to get started, build a championship culture, and establish PWHL Las Vegas as a world class sports franchise. -DiDia via press release

The finalized details for the roster-building process that DiDia will follow to build the Las Vegas team will be announced by the league in the coming weeks.
