Welcome to my website and thank you for reading it. Since we began 1st March 2006, we have received 214,000 hits, and we are aiming for 250,000 so there's a real need for National Women's team soccer news. This site is now the longest running WNT players' blog in Canada with over 2,000 written entries.

I started playing soccer at 5 years old, and I have been fortunate to play for, and against, some of the world's best teams and players. As women's soccer continues to grow, many young women have set their sights on the game at the highest level. My site will provide regular news, not just about Canadian soccer matches, but insights into what it means to be a woman player. I will post background stories about my Clubs, my travels, my teams, FIFA World Cups, Tournaments, test matches and the Olympic Games.

KANSAS CITY COMMENTARY 19th May 2013

We lost Los to FC Kansas City last night 2-0, and I think it is fair to say that the the better team won on the night. I thought that we came out well and had some really good early pressure on the home team. Unfortunately a goal against the play seemed to knock the Breakers back a bit and we took time to get READ MORE

BOSTON BREAKERS AND BOSTON BEAUTIFUL 7th May 2013

Happy Birthday Sidney Leroux!

This has been a good week. It helps that last Saturday we scored a 4 - 1 win against Chicago. Unfortunately I was not able to be a part of it as I am still nursing an injury and may need another week until full fitness. However, it was great just to be in the stadium for the game, and I had the chance to visit the city. READ MORE.
