The Eastend Storm is a merger between Gloucester Centre and Orleans Minor Hockey Associations 🏒 Players reside in postal codes K1C, K1J and K1B/Pineview.
🌊 Making waves this Thursday. Our alumni, Ivy Nellis, was in the spotlight for women’s hockey. Discussing her Cougar win at the Bell Capital Cup, getting a hockey award at Colonel By School, and her future playing with Ontario Tech Ridgebacks … a great interview.
Episode 106 is here!

This week, I’m joined by Ivy Nellis, goaltender with the Ottawa Senators Women’s Hockey Club.

Ivy discusses her development, mindset in key moments, and what’s next in her hockey journey.
