Oulun Kärpät Naiset (lit.'Oulu's Ermine Women') are an ice hockey team in the Auroraliiga. They play in Oulu, a city on the northeastern coast of the Bothnian Bay in the Finnish north-central region of North Ostrobothnia, at the Raksilan harjoitusjäähalli (lit.'Raksila training ice rink'; also known as Raksila 2) of Oulun Energia Areena. Ilves have won the Aurora Borealis Cup three times, in 2012, 2017, and 2018.[1]

The team’s parent club, Oulun Kärpät 46 ry, is the junior affiliate of the Liiga team Oulun Kärpät and the teams are loosely affiliated through that association.
