Welcome to my website. Since 1st March 2006, we have received over 102,000 hits on the site. Thank you. There is obviously a need for news of National Women's team soccer and players.

 

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

RHIAN SOCCER JOURNALS

 

ROBYN GAYLE AND DIANA MATHESON VISIT  RHIAN AND AMY IN MONTREAL        29th -31st January 2010

This journal is a guest collaboration: Robyn narrating and D typing. On Friday morning D and I headed off to sunny, crazy, frigid Montreal to visit Rhian and to see Amy and the newest addition to her family.

Well before we arrived, Rhian had warned us that the temperatures in Montreal are much colder than those in Toronto, but it wasn’t until we stepped out of the airport  READ MORE


RHIAN'S SOCCER REPORTS:

 

WOMEN SUFFER MORE SPORTS INJURIES THAN MEN BECAUSE TRAINING PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED FOR MALES. 28th January 2010

 

There is an interesting article in the United Kingdom's Daily Telegraph newspaper this week about a Report presented in Canada. The Report maintains that sportswomen are injured more than their male counterparts, because "training programs are designed for men."

 

The Report notes that sportswomen experience "dramatically" higher rates of injury than men because programs designed for "young adult white males" fail to take into account "intrinsic biological differences" between the sexes." READ MORE

A NEW DYNASTY IN VIEW       14th  January 2010

2009 has been an interesting year for Canada's National Women's Team, and this has been especially true for Amy Walsh, Martina Franko and Amber Allen. All three members of the National squad are expecting their first child.

As usual, I am late in writing this journal, but I have been fortunate that even though both Amy and Martina's due dates have passed, I have beaten them to the actual delivery. Yeah me!

For most of Amy's pregnancy I have been overseas, but I was thrilled to get the chance to visit her just after the New Year. She, her sister Bonnie, and I got together at her house for the day. Even though Amy was in her ninth month, she still insisted that we go for a ski. Not much has changed here!  READ MORE

TRAINING IN OAKVILLE & AN INVITATION  13th January 2010

Diana Matheson Guest Journal:

I am back home  in Oakville, Ontario, right now. After a great Christmas holiday with the whole family, they have now headed back to their respective homes and returned to work. However, it was great to have everyone in one place while it lasted...

Unfortunately, some local teams that might be interested in having us attend a Club practice just don't know we are here, or else don't know how to reach us. I am going to be home for a while longer, so if your team is interested in having me come out to a practice, please get in touch with me. READ MORE
