Hi I'm Caroline! The very first love of my life was Football / Soccer. From the moment I saw my very first football game at a park, I was obsessed. I was 10 years old and by the time I was 15 years old, I was representing Canada at the U-17 World Cup in New Zealand. What a moment that was for me! From there, I received a full-ride scholarship to West Virginia University where I would play Division 1 Collegiate Football while getting my education. LIFE WAS GOOD...

...UNTIL IT WASN'T.

Unfortunately, during my time at WVU, I had a career ending knee injury and my surgeons told me that I could no longer play football. To say I was devastated, was an understatement. I'll make a whole separate video on my injury and everything I dealt with during rehab and the aftermath of never being able to play again. Back then, that was definitely the worst thing I had ever gone through.

Although I wasn't able to fulfill my dreams of becoming a professional footballer / soccer player, I found another avenue to continue pursuing my dreams. There was no way I was going to allow a knee injury to pull me away from football. I knew there had to be a solution. So, I pivoted. If I can't play football, I'll be on TV and talk about it. Within the next five years, I achieved my newest goal of being on national television as a sports host for Canada's number one sports network. I spent a few years on TV and then transitioned to digital media. This is where I started my football channels ... and thankfully, they took off.

Talking about the game has brought me so much joy and passion. When I make football content and I see how much people enjoy it, this gives me a sliver of the happiness I felt when playing football. I may not be able to kick the ball around any more but I sure can talk about it.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey! I know I have Day 1 followers that are reading this and I appreciate you all VERY much! I couldn't do this without you!
