Macroom soccer ace Sheehan is ready to take her chance in Florida

The former Lakewood player fell in love with the game from an early age and after a few years playing with Kilmichael boys, she made the move to the women’s game when she joined Ovens side Lakewood. Here she matured as a player, achieving success along the way before making the move to National League with Cork City 17s.

From taking the scholarship and moving abroad, I hope to become a more technical player. I know there is a lot of fitness and strength training involved so this will definitely benefit me hugely. I will be living away from home so I will have to do more things on my own, like cooking for myself and cleaning up which I rarely do now. “But it will help me to become a more mature and independent person.”
