During her first year hosting SportsCentre, Beirness often worked with Bryan Mudryk on the weekend Sportscentre, and continued to do so through much of 2013.[1] In October 2013, Beirness and new co-host Darren Dutchyshen took over the late night and morning loop spots on TSN, replacing the departing Jay Onrait and Dan O'Toole.[2] The pair had worked together during Jennifer Hedger's maternity leave in 2011. Dutchyshen would move back to the nightly Sportscentre with Hedger, and was replaced by Natasha Staniszewski. Beirness and Staniszewski formed Sportscentre's first ever female anchor team.[3]
Prior to joining TSN, Kate worked for Rogers TV as a sports reporter[5] and on A Barrie as the sports anchor.
Beirness founded and hosts Her Mark summit, an annual one day event aimed at empowering the next generation of Canadian female leaders. The first summit was held on July 8, 2017 at BMO FieldToronto, ON[6]
Personal lifeedit
Beirness was born and raised in Port Perry, Ontario and is a graduate of the University of Ontario Institute of Technology. She was a standout basketball player throughout high school until a torn ACL forced her to switch gears and pursue a career in sports broadcasting.[4]
