About Laila Edwards
Laila Edwards made history in 2023 as the first black woman to lace up the skates for the U.S. National Hockey Team. The 19-year-old Edwards was plucked from the University of Wisconsin college team where she stars. That same year, she was named to the WCHA All-Rookie Team and was a finalist for Rookie of the Year. Edwards was also a key cog in the Badgers National Championship team by recording 27 points in 41 games during the season.

Female Athlete Speakers
Female Athlete Speakers
Professional female athletes have become a major part of the sports world over the past several years. Women continue to reach new heights of popularity on and off the field by setting records and breaking social barriers. Examples of these extraordinary achievements include Serena Williams as the face of tennis, Jessica Mendoza being the first female broadcaster for Major League Baseball and Becky Hammon being the first female basketball coach in the NBA. As female athlete speakers continue to increase in popularity, corporate groups, charities, universities, faith-based groups, women’s groups and other organizations understand the value of having a current or retired professional female athlete, coach or broadcaster at their event. Whether it be a speaking engagement, virtual meeting, trade show appearance, VIP Meet and greet, product endorsement or other events, the team at Athlete Speakers will work with your group or organization to find the perfect professional female athlete speakers.
Hockey Speakers
Hockey Speakers
Hockey stars lay their bodies on the line and they are universally respected for their toughness. The NHL has brought a significant level of exposure to these athletes’ impressive feats. Hockey speakers are also some of the humblest athletes to work with and they are great for corporate groups, charities, universities, faith-based groups, and other organizations. The way that the best hockey speakers connect with audiences on important subjects like teamwork, leadership, and overcoming adversity, makes them valuable for any in-person or virtual event.
