Nikki Symmons - the groundbreaker
Manage episode 365349100 series 2905413
For Pride month’s EuroHockey Institute Podcast, we have the incredible Nikki Symmons.
A groundbreaker in numerous realms; a Yahoo & Involve Outstanding LGBTQ Role Model 2021 & 2022, a dual Irish international across hockey and cricket, an ambassador with Athlete Ally, an inclusion and diversity advisor and, of course, a EuroHockey Hall of Famer.
Nikki speaks to Jack Rolfe about her career, the devastation of missing out on Olympic qualification, her subsequent attempts to escape those memories only to end up in Lausanne, face to face with the five rings at each turn.
She gives a fascinating insight into life first playing the sport and her subsequent role as a thought-leader in hockey’s adaptation to the digital world for five years and how the sport battles to make its mark in that realm.
