In 1923, the Swastikas won the Alpine Cup at the Banff Winter Carnival women's ice hockey championship.

Due to the limited number of opponents in the Kootenay region, the Fernie team played only one game in 1920.

[3] In the 1920s and 1930s, there was a women's hockey tournament called the Alpine Cup at the Banff Winter Carnival.

[4][5] The city of Fernie welcomed back the team on March 7, 1923, as the club returned from Banff by train.

[7] During the Carnival the Swastikas also played two scoreless games against the Calgary Regents, who attempted to win the Cup from them.

Team founder Edith Biggs cracked her rib in the first period of the game against Canmore.

Despite the loss, Fernie team captain Dahlia Schagel was elected as Carnival Queen for the upcoming year.

This limited the level of competition for them; their only opposition in British Columbia was the newly formed Cranbrook Canucks.
