About me
Kacey Bellamy represented the United States at three Olympic Winter Games, earning one gold medal in 2018 and two silver medals (2010 & 2014). Throughout her career, she also competed in nine World Championships, capturing eight gold medals, and made 13 appearances in the Four Nations Cup. Her professional success is equally impressive, having won the Clarkson Cup with the Boston Blades in 2013 and the Isobel Cup with the Boston Pride during the inaugural season of the National Women’s Hockey League (NWHL) in 2016. She later claimed another Clarkson Cup with the Calgary Inferno in the 2018-2019 season.
Kacey played college hockey at the University of New Hampshire, where she helped her team win four consecutive Hockey East championships and made it to the NCAA frozen four twice. In 2009, she was named both Hockey East and UNH’s Most Valuable Player and earned All-American honors. She capped off her collegiate career by being named UNH’s Student-Athlete of the Year during her senior season. Before that, she attended Berkshire School from 2001 to 2005, where she further developed her skills.
Kacey spent two years coaching Division 1 hockey at Merrimack College while still playing professionally. In 2017, she played a key role in advocating for equality by participating in the boycott of the World Championships, a movement that led to improved conditions for female hockey players. Kacey also became a member of the Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association (PWHPA) from 2019 to 2021, continuing her fight for gender equality in the sport.
Outside of hockey, Kacey is a motivational speaker, mentor, and published author, having released her poetry book Unbroken Heart of Gold in 2018, showcasing her creativity and passion beyond the rink. She is set to release a mindfulness journal in November, and she is currently the Director of Athletic Development at Maples Crossing, an athletic facility in Amesbury, Ma.
