Part 3: Bend it Like Helen

The not so fairy tale journey to a fairy tale ending

Find out how her journey as an athlete paved the way for her life as a business leader and also how her biggest struggles became her biggest lessons. Lessons that have helped her navigate through some of life's toughest challenges and continue to guide her through these unprecedented COVID times.

About the Speaker

Helen Stoumbos, President/CEO - The Guelph Games and Co-Founder - Canada Women's Soccer Alumni

As a Hall of Fame Canadian national team soccer athlete, Helen has learned many lessons competing on the world stage. Lessons that impacted her soccer career but also translated into all aspects of her life.

Helen was a member of Canada's National Soccer team for 8 years and was a key member of Canada's first ever world cup team in 1995 where she went on to score Canada's first ever world cup goal. Although her career ended abruptly with a knee injury, she quickly transitioned into the broadcast TV world first as a commentator for Women’s Soccer then as a partner in 2 media production companies. Her motto: “Everything begins with what makes you happy”.

Today, Helen is the President/CEO of The Guelph Games, Canada’s Premiere Masters sport event for athletes over 30. A festival of sport that brings together two of Helen’s passions: competitive sport and celebrating healthy living. 

Helen is also the President and one of the founders of the Canadian Women's Soccer Alumni Association.
