The Concordia Stingers women's ice hockey program represents Concordia University in Montreal, Quebec in the sport of ice hockey in the Réseau du sport étudiant du Québec (RSEQ) conference of U Sports. The Stingers have won nineteen RSEQ conference championships and four U Sports national championships, in 1998, 1999, 2022, and 2024.

History

The Concordia Stingers women's ice hockey team earned varsity status in 1975, ensuring that they received financial support from the university.

After playing for the Providence Friars women's ice hockey program and without any NCAA eligibility remaining, Cammi Granato moved to Montreal to earn her master's degree in sports administration at Concordia University. In 123 games, Granato scored 178 goals and 148 assists for 326 points, and was instrumental in Concordia capturing three consecutive provincial championships.

In the 1997–98 season of Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union (CIAU; renamed CIS in 2001 and U Sports in 2016) women's ice hockey, the Stingers won their first national championship, which was held at Concordia.

In the 2000 semi-finals, the Stingers were bested by the Alberta Pandas by a 4–3 tally. That year, the Stingers took third place. In the 2000–01 season, Stingers player Lisa-Marie Breton was the conference scoring leader, with eight goals and six assists in just six RSEQ games.

The team is coached by four-time Olympic medallist Julie Chu, after former coach Les Lawton accumulated more than 500 victories as Stingers head coach before stepping down due to health issues.

Erica Porter, who played five years with the Stingers (2011–2016) and earned academic All-Canadian honors in each year, was among eighteen former student-athletes selected for the 2021 U Sports Female Apprentice Coach Program. The program is geared towards increasing the number of women in coaching positions across Canadian universities and involves pairing apprentice coaches with a mentor head coach. Porter was she mentored by Concordia coaches Julie Chu and Caroline Ouellette.

The Stingers completed a perfect regular season in 2023–24, with 25 wins and 0 losses.
