==History==
Shelley Coolidge became head coach of the program in the spring of 2003. During the 2003-04 campaign, she guided the Gee Gees to the CIS national championship game where they were defeated by the Alberta Pandas. In 2006-07 she guided the Gee-Gees to a 12-6-0 record, the best in program history.
On January 16, 2008, the Gee Gees hosted a game at Scotiabank Place in Kanata, Ontario, as the Gee-Gees played the Carleton Ravens.http://universitysport.ca/e/w_icehockey/story_detail.cfm?id=10409 In 2008, the Gee Gees hosted the CIS national tournament and finished with a 1-2 record in the tourney. Their only win came in a shoot-out victory over St. Francis Xavier, where the Gee Gees prevailed by a 7-6 tally. Heading into the 2008-09 season, goaltender Jessika Audet was the oldest varsity student-athlete at uOttawa.
In her first appearance for the Ottawa Gee-Gees, Fannie Desforges scored a goal versus the York Lions in an exhibition game on September 20, 2008 as she scored a goal in a 4-0 shutout victory. In her first ever regular season game (contested on October 18, 2008), she scored her first CIS goal in a victory over the Concordia Stingers.http://www.universitysport.ca/e/championships/w_hockey/2009/documents/Ottawa_Media_Guide.pdf
