The Unpaved Path

Kristie Elliott: First Canadian Woman to Receive NCAA Football Scholarship


Listen Later

My guest today started her college career as a track athlete at Simon Fraser University, but after she made a bet with a football player at a party, that changed. She's now the first woman from Canada to earn a football scholarship in the NCAA, and shortly after this episode, she scored her first field goal.

In this episode, we talk about her first days on the football team, how her mindset has changed as a kicker over the past couple of years, and how she did her best to stay mentally ready during her first football game. She also shares some hilarious stories that definitely help you get a picture of what she goes through as the only woman on her football team.

This episode is definitely worth a listen! If you want to follow along on Kristie's journey, she can be found on Instagram at @kristie.elliott
