Namibian international and Brave Gladiators midfielder Annouschka Kordom has signed a professional contract for a season with women’s club Aris Limassol in Cyprus.

The midfielder is joining the new club from Israel’s Hapoel Be'er Sheva Women’s Football club (WFC), a top ranked football club in that country. Before that she also played for Corban University (Corban Warriors) in the United States.

Bagging more than just football

This is where she also graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in marketing and sports management last year.

The midfielder is a proud product of the Galz & Goals development programme and a former Women Super League player with Tura Magic.

She spoke about her experience playing for the clubs, saying that she learned a lot.

“My time at Corban was truly a life-changing experience. I grew in my faith, made life-long friendships and got to experience what it was like to be part of an amazing, God-loving community.

“On the other hand, playing for WFC was a really good club. They take good care of their players; they have great facilities and offer quality training.

“It’s unfortunate that things didn't work out for both of us, and that we had to part ways, but I really enjoyed my time at the club, even though it was such a short period, I got a glimpse of what the life of a professional looks like.”

Hard work will pave the way

She added that she was extremely thankful to them for introducing her to the world of professional football. With the experiences she has picked up, Kordom said that she now wants to just do her best at her new club and leave a great mark by working hard and being the best she can be.
