The six teams of the recently launched Professional Women's Hockey now have a name of the championship trophy they're competing for: The Walter Cup. The trophy is named after the league's primary financial backer, Los Angeles Dodgers owner Mark Walter, and his family. The name was proposed by PWHL advisory board member and tennis icon Billy Jean King, who teamed with Walter to establish the league last year. The trophy will be made out of sterling silver and designed by Tiffany & Co., and feature a cup held up by a pair of hockey sticks.
