Rachel carney

Reason for nomination:
Rachel has been an inspiring role model, dedicating her time to coaching at her high school and recently achieving her UEFA C coaching license. Her passion for the game extends beyond just coaching—she continues to play herself, setting an example for the young players she mentors.
Through her work coaching with her club’s young girls’ team, Rachel has created an environment where players feel encouraged to grow, develop, and believe in their abilities. Now, as she shares the field with and competes against former players she once coached, she takes immense pride in seeing them continue their football journeys.
Her impact goes beyond the game—she is showing young girls that age is no barrier to playing and that coaching is a path open to women, breaking down barriers and paving the way for the next generation. Rachel’s dedication deserves recognition, as she is actively shaping the future of women’s football by creating opportunities and inspiring those around her.
