From borrowed gear to breaking barriers, India’s women ice hockey players have carved their legacy on frozen ponds.

In the biting cold of Ladakh, where the ice was cracked and the support even thinner, they laid down their own rink, one midnight layer at a time. They were mocked, sidelined, and told to quit, but they didn’t just stay. They scored.

Now, with a bronze at the IIHF Asia Cup, their skates have etched a new chapter in Indian sport—one built on grit, defiance, and generations of quiet revolution.

Swipe to witness the fire beneath the ice >>>
