Meet the Team

The Valkyrie Initiative founders are unwaveringly passionate about their mission, driven by a deep personal connection to their cause. Having played together for the North Smithfield Northmen in the early 2000s, they hold a unique perspective on the transformative power of sports and community support. It is through firsthand experience that they have witnessed the confidence building, valuable skills, and lasting friendships that sports can instill in women. It is this passion that has inspired them to assemble the Valkyrie!
