It won't work as the skill set isn't quite there and there are better alternatives. WHL, Jr A, CIS/NCAA depending where you live that is affordable and better hockey.

The Women's Olympic team played Alberta Midget AAA teams leading up to last Olympics and were a .500 team those games. The same team that played in the gold medal game against the US team was an average Midget AAA team. This is taking the best players of all the "pro" women's teams so the women's league would be even worse hockey than Midget AAA. You can go see a top end AAA team like the Buffaloes for free.

Hailey Wickenheiser which is regarded as the Gretzky of women's hockey and a hall of famer used to practice with the U of C Dino's about 10+ years ago. A friend who played on that team said she was easily the worse player out there. This is against former WHLers but her skill set wasn't even close.
