Did You Know…Talia’s favourite soccer memory was in Australia. She got to play at the home of Matilda’s, and they won the Nike Cup. Talia’s team got a whole day experience being treated by Nike before playing. This was her last game in Australia which made it a great way to go out with her team and her family who were there to watch….she enjoys going out to grab a coffee, shopping, and watching all reality TV shows….Talia is an advocate for equal pay for women. In sports and beyond, she says that women deserve to be compensated and valued equally for their talent, hard work, and contributions.
