Is it just me or humanity slowly getting better? Haha. Like it’s so nice see the positivity in the comments sections on a lot of these little female athletes working so hard for their dream. Personally, this as well as the 8 year old female snowboarder, just make me smile. They are so crazy talented and it’s so cool cause you know it’s not just some god given talent. These girls are working for everything they get and I’m so proud. It’s awesome seeing more and more girls going into things like hockey and snowboarding/skateboarding. The world really is opening up and it’s wonderful. My mind goes nuts when I look even ten years into the future of women’s athletes.
And having her on all the boys teams, not only makes her better, but it’s gonna make them better people. They will hopefully take their experiences and have more respect for women growing up and never underestimating what a girl can do. Absolutely love these videos Whistle thank you so much for showing because I know that every time you do one of these, to say she has inspired one person, would be way off. Can’t imagine how many girls saw this and thought wow I want to play hockey. Get out there girls! The future is looking bright!
Thank you, Lindsey!
Thank you so much for the kind words Lindsey!! It's comments like these that make the job worth doing! 😃🙏Can you send us a DM on Instagram (@whistlesports)? We'd love to send you some merch!!

Wow I’m a girl 12 years old I play softball and flag football I really felt that comment my dad wants me to play tackle which I do but my mom doesn’t want me too but I work for my achievements I played with all boy I made the game winning touchdown last year also I love to see comments like this it makes me feel like I can do anything bc these girls are doing it I 💯 % agree with you I work harder every day to be better tysm for this comment
This is amazing, you can tell she's really focused and has practiced a lot, she's earned it! Also, great hockey stick :)
Thanks for watching Coach!
Ly coach and ur totally right
I’m a girl too, i started my first season this january and you’ve really helped me alot coach😊𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮!
Coach Jeremy, You are right because she was on my team. She handles the puck well and is a great playmaker, I could tell at every game she got better and better!
Thanks Coach Jeremy!
I am a 12 year old girl and I play AA boys hockey at the California Bears club and I'm the only girl on the team, AND im a goalie. I've been in multiple news articles for hockey and played many years of western selects. I'm proud of maya because she is very feirce and tough.
They should make one of these about a hockey goalie
I remember this one from 2008. A 12 year old very talented female hockey goalie.
th-cam.com/video/1276k7mejrI/w-d-xo.html
They need to show goalies more love
hockeyd 12 I KNOW!
Ya
yeah that's a great idea
or even just any goalie or a volleyball libero or some other equivalent
Love this. Shows female hockey and girls sports in such a positive light. She's working so hard and has a passion for sports and hockey. Can't wait to see how far she goes with it!
I have to say she is an incredible player for her age but their are some small details that she could work like being smoother with the puck and bringing her top hand out when she shoots to get the most accurate shot but that backwards skating and dedication to the game is unreal for her age.
This also shows that one of these hockey prodigy KIDS are girls.GIRL POWER!!!!
I look at some of these kids and think "Wow, these are kids are beyond awesome." Sometimes I see kids and they are far better than I am, and I am totally okay with that and they inspire me to want to learn more about hockey and better my own game. I have only been playing hockey for four years now and these kids are just some of my biggest inspirations, especially the young girls. Watching them I learn a lot and I would not have it any other way :)
I am starting to train my 2 1/2 year old nieces in Ukraine how to play Hockey. I am going to show them this video, to inspire them to be like Maya... All the best Maya, from a Goalie from Elizabeth, NJ :)
I’m 14 and I’ve never played hockey in my life. I love the sport to death but it’s not local. The closest league is an hour away and that doesn’t sound to bad but it’s not manageable. Gosh, I haven’t even been ice skating once. Every day I go outside with my cheap, wooden street hockey stick and a tennis ball and try my hardest. There’s nobody on my street who I can play with so it’s pretty much me and a laundry basket. I just hope it’s not to late to start.
im 13 and i just started hockey, yes it super super challenging to catch up to other players since they have been playing almost their entire lives. I know that the nearest league is normally an hour away but I would recommend doing clinics for the summer before trying to get into a team. it is a bit of a late start and a ton of people told me that but I didn’t care. Work hard, be dedicated, and you will get there trust me.
no play as hard as you can but tbh man idk if you will get to top leagues
This girl was on my team, nice job Maya
sir u look like ur 40
Justin Song 46 actually but my son who shares this account with me is 10. Appreciate the compliment!
Same she was on my spring team
this is my dads account our phones are connected for some reason
My sister played with her on the rockets with her and props to her old coach sorg
Just you wait whistle after quarantine i will be nasty on the ice.
Can't wait!
She's got mad skillz, and she's awesome! and she wears my number the big 19! That a girl!
my only hope is that this movement of equality in sports hasn't burned out by the time she can make a living as a hockey player. Unfortunately I think at that moment in time everybody's going to realize that there's no money is no market for women's professional hockey but he's great
EXPLOSIVE FEMALE HOCKEY SKILL & DEVELOPMENT SALUTES YOU Maya! Your determination and drive to always do your best will always see you through to your goals and dreams! I too was a figure skater for years and now coach EDGE, POWER & STRIDE to those in hockey who wish to 'Live On The Edge'! May you always follow your bliss!
She's on my team!!
Brooke Di Loreto don’t lie it said she was on an all boys team
^^^^
Mets Fan she plays other teams so she prob has a team where she is with the girls
Mets Fan I'm not lying she plays on my girls team
Anna Rinaldi yeah she plays on my girls team
It's cool how she does both hockey and figure skating
I’m glad you listen to feedback and show actual game footage of the person now! I don’t know hockey very well but she seems pretty good
Mets Fan she’s not that good there are a lot of better players for girls
Kyle Hockey Bruh that's mean
Mets Fan why the heck would you like the Mets?
@RyDog because I like jokes and the Mets are one lol just kidding. I wanted to be unique because everyone I know is a Yankees fan
#1 ingredient? WEALTHY PARENTS or ones willing to go bankrupt to pay for all the perks this young lady enjoys. Most parents can't afford these luxuries. WONDERFUL work young lady. Keep up all the great work. GO MAYA!!!! I noticed the younger male coach speaking near the end of this video from another video about a 7 year old boy phenom.
This made me so happy!! What a girl! 😍
I play on a all girl hockey team
Figure skating, ice hockey, gymnastics, horse back riding, socker
I feel like she earned it more than the other people I saw on this channel that were just really rich
This shows girls can fo anything!
Except spell 🤣it was just a joke
@Gunner Montenaro good joke lol
Likin that devils jersey
Do Christopher Menzel he is really good at hoops his channel is Hooper for life and it is a picture of him and his dog in the circle like how you have a W for whistle.
This girl might be in the nhl
@Noscope0721 not me
@Noscope0721 I think they should be in the nhl
@@rileykazama3145not likely
I play for Hollydell at 3:60!!!
I’m going to start hockey hopefully my parents say yes and I’m a girl and you helped me😊
That slapshot wind up LMAO
100 of her in the Toronto area where the strongest girls hockey league is
Love it!
She is the only good hockey player that’s ever been on one of these
Okay buddy she doesn’t even look that good
I play hockey to and I'm a boy and I'm 9 years old so yeah and great Jersey.
Yeah go Aaron I support you
Let’s go Devils! 🤙🏻
Wouldn't be surprised if she makes the NWHL
4:56 she sounds like female gru XD
Where you at the Magnus skates?
She’s awesome but a lot can change between now and then. Take the pressure off and let her enjoy the game.
This makes me feel great about myself because I’m an 11 year old hockey player that’s a girl. I play in a league with other boys and I’m the best there. (that’s what my coach said)
I’m too scared to even skate on ice 😧
Same I'm sticking with basket ball!
I’m m a girl and I play hockey it’s so fun and she is soo good and also I used to play on a boys team I was the only girl
I feel like I have had her on my team
So good
If she is also a figure skater it must be so stranger to hear the things us hockey players say! All the teams i have been on the we loved to make fun of figure skaters! Now that I see her I’m like well I’ll shut up now
my classmate is a girl and plays hockey too she started hockey when she was 3 years old
GIRLS CANT PLAY
@@amysuresh4292 im pretty sure my friend is better than u
@@snowboardingyay8749 she’s prob dust if she’s like the girl in the video than she bad she can barely take a slap shot her skating is average and her puck Handel it isn’t that good either
In MN there are a lot of girls at 10 who are this good or better. I wouldn’t call her a phenom
Do a no days off with a hockey goalie
Great idea!
Ya
yeah ( if your wondering id be happy to volunteer) JK
The more likes and comments mean more likely chance of a goalie vid
Yes
See you in the NWHL!
What birth year are you? I think you'll be there sooner :)
Maya Hockey your slapshot is better than mine and I’m a starting second year pee wee...
@@mayahockey6482 I apologize for the late response. No way I'd make it in the NWHL, but you definitely have a shot!
@@bonk539 Thanks! Mine is still a work in progress, no goals with it yet :)
@@mayahockey6482 Do you remember me from the aaa tryout and practice with coach sorg. I'm charlie btw
Go Maya!!!!
Thank you, Pavel! You've always encouraged me for years and I appreciate it!
Hey pavs you are my idol I’m trying out for AAA because of you!!!
@@mayahockey6482 you can take it to the top!💪
I know here
Pavel you Rule !
Hey go to Canada they are everywhere
Exactly it’s not surprising to me I play and I’m a girl an I didn’t Star when I was 3 and I’m almost as good as her 😒
I live in Canada! I love hockey! But I also skateboard.
I miss hockey 🏒
Same
At least you guys had most of a hockey season to watch me and the baseball gang probably won’t get any baseball season all year
That's true but while miss all of playoffs
@@metsfan7376 thats true
Same
i did a hockey camp with her last summer. shes super nice and such an inspiration. go maya!!!
It's so sad when parents label their kids as the next great one and put enormous amount of pressure on the kids, she is still so young, anything can happen, let her enjoy her youth before putting all this pressure.....
This girl is actually incredible at figure skating and hockey. You can tell that this is her working for her goals, not her parents pushing her to make he name known. She doesn’t seem like a player who just wants to score, she wants other people to score to. She would get up if she got hurt no matter how bad it was. She will push herself to her limits and beyond.
thank you!
Your so good
More girls should play hockey
Boys 8 womens team 0

Can you do more hockey kids?
Agreed
More football
6:21 Warrior Princess LMAO 😂😂
This inspired me now I'm trying out for a hockey team
Go get them Amber!
Good luck. Have fun!👍
How it going ?
3:40 "I helped my team"
She is so inspiring with all the different sports she does.
6:12 GO warrior princess!
I don’t know why but being from New Jersey and playing at all these rinks makes me so happy and proud to know a great hockey player came from the garden state
I am so bad at hockey when I ice skate I get thirsty and lick the ice
Yeah, could see how that would be an issue...
Thats one way to get my tough cut off
I want to make fun of you but I may do the same
😂
I play hockey at a high school level and I play for varsity and for elite hockey for triple a and double a elite teams she’s crazy for her age I am good as a goalie but I’ve never seen an insane 10 year old she speaks the truth when people get injured they do back out I tour my acl and meniscus and I didn’t quit keep going
Braedy for minecraft Good stuff I actually am from Canada but I moved to the other usa
AAA in the us is a joke. The kids on your team are probably on the local b team and it's just called aaa. It explains how u think it's impressive, I'm not hating or anything she is a good player, but if u think she is crazy your team must be last in the league
@@bobbyshmurda6923 fr
I was on her team 2 years ago on the devils I was the goalie she’s such a good player go maya
She'll win a medal for her country one day!!! GO MAYA GO!!! 🏒🥇
How to be a superstar according to whistle
1.have a lot of trophies
2.have a trainer
3.have a lot of money
Dustin byfuglien had none of those which just proves your point even more
Facts
Idk she just doesn’t seem that good to me I mean idk
Someone can achieve their goal without that
Y'all just hatin
7:14 smh
She is good. My daughter is 8 and also loves hockey. Great to see more females take up the sport at a young age.
I am a ice dancer and I love it I am a British ice skating ⛸ Champion for Britain 🇬🇧 I won in 2018 and in 2019 I came third I have been skating for 6 years I started when I was 5 and this video was very strong and she knew what she was doing. ⛸⛸⛸⛸
tbh they gotta stop showing off the trophys, it’s annoying. But besides that this is the first hockey player that isn’t too cocky and has actual talent.
I am a girl and you inspire me to keep pushing myself and encourage more girls to play hockey. Go Maya!
I played on her devils team on my first year of squirts. She’s so nice and a great player. And there’s something about being from new jersey and seeing all of the rinks in this video that I play at
She goes to my school
Something i don’t understand is…the goal / net should be smaller. It’s impossible for the kids to save it.
She ok but I wouldn't call her a amazing female superstar also everybody on my AAA team are about better but some are only a little better but she could most likely play AA but I'm not sure SORRY IF THIS IS MEAN THATS NOT WHAT MY INTENTION WAS
Hey bud pretty sure none of them train as hard as her
Agreed and if she wants to go far in hockey I’d recommend her going into a girls AAA program so she gets seen by the right people
I’m 11 and I play hockey too and maya inspires me and motivates me to practice and play. I’ve watched this several times lol
She’s a great player! She has a way better Slapshot then me (not that girls cant have a good Slapshot)Keep playing like you are:)
Was this made during the quarantine
No
Before!
In few years, she will be a teenage girl. Goodluck She need to play for Shattuck St. Mary's or private school so she can get daily ice time. Hopefully, she will receive a D-1 offer. Right now, women's pro hockey doesn't pay.
there are famous NHL players that have said looking back they wish they took figure skating lessons young. It would have made them a better skater in hockey.
Definitely next big thing for woman’s hockey! 🤩
Remember guys, no matter what you do, there is always a child doing it better than you
sure she is good but what i wanna see is someone who didnt have a private coach or a battlemode hockeystick. someone who used minimum things because thats all they had
Super cool to see more females getting into the sport of hockey
Kaleyna Chun girls hockey is fairly established on the west coast and the Midwest, not sure about the East coast though.
Oh sorry didnt think about other places besides were I live
We are almost the same person you can tell she is awesome and works super hard also we are the same age hopefully our teams play each other someday it would be so cool to meet you
I’m so glad they are focusing on a girl hockey player because I’m a girl hickey player too and I played on a boys team like her. Now I’m 13 and her work ethic is better then a lot of people.
She looks just like me when I was just that age which is soooo amazing just like the girl hockey player I am. Her progression is insane and her work ethic is just wow.
I play hockey and it is true girls hockey should be more popular
MOSAB Abdu Ahmed it’s not entertaining
@@Donthaveone983 Well it's hard to become really good at something when many of them can't support themselves financially playing the game. Mens sport changed and became much more entertaining after the athletes started beeing able to live on it. If we want entertaining female hockey we need to put the money into it and allow these athletes to become all they can be.
@@Donthaveone983 it's the same friggin thing you obviously have never watched
@@NotLikeAmir No it is not their is no body checking thats why mens hockey is better
I really really want to play hockey but I’m 12 and I feel it’s to late and I feel people will make fun of me for playing a “guys” sport and there are no girls teams that I know of in my area but one day I hope to be as good as you
May I have a no days off because I play hockey and work out ever day!
Coach Matt is my coach
SpikeBoarding (new American roller skiing) would help Maya very well. In her own words, "what ever helps the upper body." SpikeBoarding is the little sister of Nordic roller skiing only it's twice as fun and the logistics of practicing SpikeBoarding are far lower. In regards to the skating stride. SpikeBoarding requires switch kicking skate stride. The ambipedal skills development are near to those of figure skating however slightly different and all that much more beneficial when added to the hockey skate stride and all the figure stride work. Hands down the one sport that will develop high VO2Max will be SpikeBoarding. The full body hill repeat work that can get done is fantastic. Don't forget. SpikeBoarding develops exactly the same benefit as full body Nordic XC roller skiing. Exactly the same. Who has the highest recored VO2 Max on the planet? You guessed it Nordic skiers. Not even pro peloton cyclist come close. I love what I am seeing here. Tons of logical and super good cross training with everything that makes a great athlete first. Then make the superior hockey player. SpikeBoarding is simple to find online. SpikeBoarding same as you are discovering with figure skating will help win championships.
She is better than most of the actual devils
Yo stop flexing your Metals we are trying to see how good you are
This kid is amazing. Figure skating and hockey are very different styles of skating. I wouldn't really say figure skaters are better skaters than hockey players. Usually you can tell when a figure skater is playing hockey by their upright posture and chest out stride. Not well suited for any physical contact or speed. This kid seems to be able to emulate each style and look like a completely different skater in each sport.
Whoever disliked this video u are jelly
@@southmoreconlin3757 Jelly as in Jelous its slang
Why do they never take Canadians for these episodes there are way better players!
Sure bud
Eagle Boi there are more than 400 Canadians that play in the NHL and just barely over 200 players from the US! And I’ve seen way better players in Canada but there are better players than her in the US too!
Ya but do they work and train as hard as her. Plus you could say that about any country in the world, there are good players all over the world like Japan's Aito Iguchi who is an absolute champion.
Bring her up to penticton Canada we will teach her how to skate
Cannnon Bal I know right lol 😂
Proud of you, Maya! Believe.
I’m a girl and I hope I can get in the NHL. Because NHL is one of the first professional leagues that can accept both genders. 🙂
Do a no days off without a rich kid who can afford the very best
Wait I’m Mya I’m ten and I play hockey. Ok I’m scared
I wish I could practice right now but it’s super snowy and I can’t practice anywhere but outside 😢
You have given me so much insperation and now I'm so much better than I was befor, I love you!!!!!
