Alexandra Georgopoulos from Strathfield Strikers FC kicks goals on and off the field. She has played football since she was six years old, in mixed gender teams before moving onto female teams in her teen years and later playing in the top division of her age category.

In 2016, Alexandra was chosen by FIFA, among 50 others worldwide, to visit FIFA Headquarters in Zurich, to take part in consultations to improve the game for the global community. She currently holds the position of Female Football Officer at her local club, Strathfield Strikers FC.

Alexandra is also a member of the CDSFA Female Football Committee. She is an inspiration to many girls and is determined to ensure girls are provided with the support to become confident referees, players and coaches in football.

In the future, Alexandra is determined to work for FIFA, hoping to be the first female FIFA President.

In Episode #2 of the CDSFA Community Football Podcast, Gilbert Lorquet speaks with Alexandra Georgopoulos about her inspiring contribution towards the development of football.
