Meet Abbey Hrovatin!

TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF!

I am from Austin, Texas and I have been doing competitive swimming for about eight years. My love for hockey all started when I went to my first hockey game a couple of years ago. After a couple of years of seeing hockey games I wanted to play because I thought it would be cool to play hockey. So I asked my mom and my mom said sure and we looked for a place where I could learn. We found a place and the first day I loved it and came back. Ever since then I have been learning to play and I have loved every minute of it.

WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO BE A WHL BRAND AMBASSADOR?

I became an ambassador because I love what they do for girls in hockey.

WHAT’S SOMETHING NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT YOU?

A fun fact about me is that I love animals.

IF YOU COULD SIT DOWN AND HAVE DINNER WITH ONE FEMALE HOCKEY PLAYER, WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY?

I would definitely sit down and eat dinner with Kendall Coyne because I love the way she plays and she just inspires me.

WHAT’S THE BEST ADVICE YOU’VE EVER BEEN GIVEN IN HOCKEY OR IN LIFE?

The best advice I have been given is never give up and keep fighting till the end no matter what.

WHAT’S YOUR DREAM FOR WOMEN’S HOCKEY?

I believe that girls should play whatever sport or activities that they want.
