Meet Marissa Callaghan…

Welcome to Sport Inspires, a podcast recorded with the Mary Peters Trust and made possible by the Coca-cola Thank You Fund.

Today’s episode is with Northern Ireland Women’s Football Captain Marissa Callaghan, who led the team to their first-ever major tournament qualifier last year in a historic match against Ukraine.

The conversation you’re about to hear was very kindly hosted by Nicola McCarthy and touches on

  • Where Marissa’s love for the game came from

  • The journey that's led to women’s football being put on the map in such a historic way

  • And how Marissa and the team are preparing for the biggest tournament of their lives in 2022.

Thanks so much for being here and we really hope you enjoy.
