Today’s Guest: Katie Cummings
Today’s guest is someone who represents what this show is all about—commitment, grit, and the love of the game. Katie Cummings didn’t grow up in a hockey-crazed town or follow the traditional pipeline to success. She built her journey out of passion and persistence in a place where rinks were scarce, girls’ teams were barely formed, and playing opportunities meant lacing up for three different teams in a single season.
From practicing on a mini-rink in Nashville to eventually becoming a national champion with the Jr. Preds U19 girls program, Katie’s story is a powerful reminder that you don’t need perfect circumstances to chase big dreams. You just need drive, creativity, and the willingness to go all in.
This is a story about breaking barriers, holding the line when it would've been easier just to quit, and leaving a legacy for the next wave of girls who want to play this great game.
Let’s dive into the inspiring hockey journey of Katie Cummings!! Connect with Katie 🙂
