Downy and USA Hockey Announce Partnership By Sending One Lucky Fan To The Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026

Downy Rinse Out Odor Launches Sweepstakes Offering Two Tickets to Watch The U.S. Men's Ice Hockey Team Play On February 14.

CINCINNATI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Downy, the laundry care brand from Procter & Gamble, is celebrating its new partnership with USA Hockey by launching a sweepstakes offering a once-in-a-lifetime trip: two tickets to the Winter Olympics to cheer on the U.S. Men's Ice Hockey Team on February 14, 2026. Fans can enter* for their chance to win from now until January 2, 2026, at DownyRinseSweepstakes.com/OlympicWinterGames.

Through this partnership, Downy Rinse is bringing its odor-fighting solution to hockey gear — instead of masking the stink, it helps remove it at the source. In one wash** it rinses away deep-set odors, leaving apparel fresher, softer, and brighter.

“Sweat from the game is something hockey players and their families know well,” said Redge Abueva, Vice President at Procter & Gamble. “Downy Rinse fights these tough uniform odors and is proud to support Team USA by engaging fans and offering them this unforgettable experience.”

“It’s exciting to welcome Downy to the USA Hockey family,” said Pat Kelleher, executive director of USA Hockey. “Our athletes give their all on the ice, and our fans are as passionate as any in the world. What better way to celebrate this partnership than by offering our amazing fans a chance to join us in Milan?”

Downy and USA Hockey will also roll out content featuring Laila Edwards, Caroline Harvey, and their families as they share some of their favorite stories associated with their hockey journeys. Viewers can tune in on Downy and USA Hockey social channels.

Downy Rinse is available at retailers nationwide. Try for as low as $5. Visit www.Downy.com for more information.

The Downy Rinse x USA Hockey Fan Sweeps is open to legal residents of the 50 U.S. & D.C., who are 21 years of age or older as of the last day of the month prior to date of entry.
