EARLY DAYS
At age eight she began playing for an all-girls team, and says she built her resiliency while competing for the team in an all-boys league. "I played for an all-girls team in an all-boys league. Not only are you competing against the boys on the field when you were little, you were competing with their dads on the sidelines, making comments, so I think it definitely made a difference playing against boys from a young age. It was verbal abuse like, 'Kick her' or, 'Break her legs', a bit of racial abuse. You've got to grow a thick skin, you've got to be tough, you're going to get boys kicking you and maybe saying things that aren't nice, but it's part of the game."
