The Turin 2025 women's ice hockey tournament was held during 11 to 20 January 2025 at Palasport Tazzoli in Turin, Italy.^[4] Eight national student teams participated in the event, representing Canada, Chinese Taipei, the Czech Republic, Great Britain, Japan, Kazakhstan, Slovakia, and the United States.

In the preliminary round, each team was placed in a closed group of four teams and played a single round-robin to determine seeding for the playoff round. The first and second ranked team in each group progressed to the semifinals and the remaining teams faced off in the 5-8 semifinals. The outcomes of the semifinals determined matchups for all placement games.
