Kate Richardson Walsh MBE

Kate Richardson-Walsh is the most capped female hockey player in her country’s history, and was captain of GB women’s hockey teams for 13 years.

An inspirational and charismatic leader she has been widely credited for helping build the incredible team ethos and commitment that drove the GB team to a nail biting victory at the Rio Olympic Games.  In winning gold Kate Richardson-Walsh also made history in other ways, becoming one half of the first same-sex married couple to win an Olympic medal playing in the same team.

Having made her international debut in 1999, Kate has maintained elite performance levels for 17 years and made over 370 appearances for her country. After securing a bronze in London 2012, Rio 2016 was the Mancunian’s fourth Games and finally yielded the coveted Olympic Gold medal. Alongside her GB duties Kate has captained England for 13 years, winning the European Championships in 2015 and securing a bronze and two silvers in three successive Commonwealth Games.
