List of Olympic women's ice hockey players for Finland

Women's ice hockey tournaments have been staged at the Olympic Games since 1998.[1] Men's ice hockey had been introduced at the 1920 Summer Olympics, and added to the Winter Olympic Games in 1924.[2] In July 1992, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) voted to approve women's hockey as an Olympic event to first be held at the 1998 Winter Olympics.[1][3] Finland has won two bronze medals in women's hockey, including the first bronze medal in women’s ice hockey at the Winter Olympic games.[4]
