Career
As a youth player, Bouveng played on the boy's junior side of Wings HC Arlanda.[1]
She signed with Djurgården to begin her SDHL career in 2017. [2] She would put up 12 points in 33 games in her rookie SDHL season before improving to 26 points in 27 games in 2018-19, the most by an SDHL player under the age of 18. In the 2019-20 season, her point production dropped back down to 12, but she led the entire league in faceoff percentage. [3]
She was due to move to North America to study and play for Princeton University beginning with the 2020-21 season, but the COVID-19 pandemic forced her to cancel those plans. She chose to sign with Brynäs IF for the 2020-21 season instead, staying in Sweden.[4]
International
Bouveng made her debut with the junior Swedish national team at the age of 14. She won gold with the country at the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics, and has played in three IIHF U18 Women's World Championships.[5][6]
