KalPa Naiset[a] is a Finnish ice hockey team in the Naisten Mestis. Founded in 1990, the team plays at the Kuopion jäähalli[b] in Kuopio, the largest city in Finland's eastern-central province of North Savo; Lippumäen jäähalli serves as a secondary venue. It is opperated by Juniori-KalPa ry, a club comprising many youth and recreational teams that is affiliated with but distinct from KalPa, a men's professional ice hockey team that plays in the Liiga and is operated by KalPa Hockey Oy.
KalPa played in the Finnish premier league during 1990 to 2001 and 2009 to 2026. They were the Aurora Borealis Cup runners-up in 2021, for which they earned Finnish Championship (SM) silver medals, and also won SM bronze five times, in 1995, 1996, 2017, 2023, and 2024.
History
KalPa Naiset has been in continuous opperation since the team made its debut in the 1988–89 season of the Naiseten I-divisioona ('Women's 1st-division;' renamed Naisten Mestis in 2012). Despite attracting the highest attendance in the league across ten games played in 1988–89, the team finished the season in last place. Nana Lamberg led the team in scoring, with two goals, and Tuula Kuhmoinen and Marika Lentz tied for second, with one goal and one assist each.[1]
The 1990–91 season marked KalPa's debut in the Naisten SM-sarja, the Finnish Championship league for women's ice hockey in Finland. They finished the regular season in a tie with SaiPa for last place, after both teams amassed just four points across twelve games.[2] KalPa then lost a tie-breaker game to SaiPa and had to play a best-of-three relegation series against the first-placed team in Group A of the Naisten I-divisioona, JoKP. The series was pushed to game three before KalPa secured their place in the Naisten SM-sarja with a 4–3 victory over JoKP in the decisive match.[3]
KalPa qualified for the Aurora Borealis Cup playoff final for the first time in 2020. They were set to face the reigning champions, Kiekko-Espoo, and were guaranteed at least a SM silver medal, which would have been the highest finish in team history to that point, when the playoffs were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic before the first game of the series could be played. With the cancellation of the season no Finnish Championship (SM) medals were awarded in 2020.[4]
The team remained among the best performing teams in the league through the following season and were finally able to challenge Kiekko-Espoo for the Aurora Borealis Cup in the 2021 playoff finals. They fell short of the championship title but earned Finnish Championship silver medals as the finals runners-up and secured the best playoff finish in team history.
Voluntary relegation
Juniori-KalPa ry, the team's parent club, announced in April 2026 that it had selected not to apply for an Auroraliiga license on behalf of KalPa Naiset for the 2026–27 season.[5] The club asserted that the application was not submitted because internal assessment had determined that its operating association did not have the capacity to build and support a competitive Auroraliiga team due to financial limitations and concerns regarding operational changes required under the licensing system.[6]
On 29 April, KalPa Naiset players posted a collective message on the team's Instagram account detailing steps they had taken to keep the team in the Auroraliiga and to highlight "questions about the [Juniori-KalPa] association's values, commitment to equality, and long-term desire to develop the club as a whole" raised by the decision.[7] The players had asked Juniori-KalPa ry to apply for an Auroraliiga license with an exception allowing for team operations to be transferred during the season to a proposed association called KalPa Naiset ry. The team's proposal included a plan for the transfer of team operations under the leadership of an operations board that had already been mustered, a sponsorship group comprising more than 25 local businesses, and eighteen players committed to play for the Auroraliiga team. [8]
The club responded via press release a day after the player message was posted, reiterating that the team would not play in the 2026–27 Auroraliiga season and asserting that the decision was motivated by a desire to create a stronger foundation for women's ice hockey in the future. The press release contained no information regarding how the association intended to strengthen its women's program or its rejection of the player proposal, nor did it respond to any of the specific questions raised in the player message.[9]
