The original Map of Women's Hockey in Switzerland was created as a custom Google Map in September 2025. I posted on LinkedIn about its creation in September 2025, and when I made major updates. I have captured those updates below, along with the subsequent updates. They are currently listed from oldest to newest.

Over the course of different additions to the map, I had started bringing more structure and details to different sets of entries, and it was time to do the same with the original entries in Switzerland, starting with the PFWL. Entries for this league now include a place for
- Team name
- A headline to highlight something special about the team
- Tips for first-time visitors
- Where to buy tickets
- A link to the team's calendar
- The team's webpage or site
- Additional tips for supporting the team
- The Club to which the team is affiliated
- Club webpage
- The arena and address
- How to watch games online
- The league in which the team plays, and additional associated links
- The date the entry was last updated.
For example, the entry for EV Zug currently includes the following:
- Name: EVZ Women's Team
- Headline: The 2025/26 championship banner was ceremonially hoisted ahead of the EVZ Women’s Team’s first home game: https://www.evz.ch/en/news/teams/women/2026/10/the-2025-26-championship-banner-has-been-hoisted-under-the-hall-roof/
- Upcoming commentated match: @ Zurich: Saturday, 9 January 2027 | 13:15 (details and streaming links at https://www.sihf.ch/de/game-center/game/20271185000071 ) andvs Bern: Saturday, 20 February 2027 | 17:30 (details and streaming links at https://www.sihf.ch/de/game-center/game/20271185000088)
- Tips for first-time visitors: The time on the ticket is when the game starts. Arrive at least 15 minutes before to get settled before the pre-game sound and light show, and 45 minutes before to see the teams' on-ice warm-up before the game. This will give you plenty of time to decide where you want to sit, and perhaps grab some food and drinks from the stands. Doors open 60 minutes before puck drop.
