Passionate Players

Reason for nomination:

I’m not exactly sure which category I fit into. I played for Crawley Wasps in the third tier last season and am hoping to get back into the third tier post injury. I broke 3 bones in my face and sustained a major concussion so I have been out for 6 months.

But, I also spent the last two years working in athlete engagement for IDA Sports, who make women’s football boots, working to grow our community with the help of diverse role models. Now I’m working for Keepher, who make women’s football gloves, as their marketing director.

I coach a women’s beginners 5-a-side team, host a WSL themed podcast, and volunteer in the football community in my free time.
