What year was the Clarkson Cup established?

  1. 2005

  2. 1892

  3. 1834

  4. 1800s

The correct answer is: 2005

The Clarkson Cup is a women's ice hockey trophy, awarded to the champion of the Canadian Women's Hockey League (CWHL). The premier women's ice hockey league in North America, the CWHL was founded in 2005 and the Clarkson Cup was established as its championship trophy in the same year. The other options, B, C, and D, are incorrect because they are not significant dates in the establishment or history of the CWHL or the Clarkson Cup. 1892 and 1834 are much earlier years and do not align with the timeline of the CWHL's creation. While the 1800s is closer, it is still too vague and does not provide a specific year. Therefore, these options can be eliminated as they do not accurately answer the question. The correct answer is A, 2005, as it coincides with the founding of the CWHL and the establishment of the Clarkson Cup as its championship trophy.
