Liberty FC 99G Faith, Family and Friendship! Our Coach's BIO

There 4 more days before that Player can commit to a team.  We want to post our coach's Bio. She is an awesome person and a great coach.  Yes she knows how to win, but more important is "How it is done gracefully and with humility".
    She took our team from 2nd to last two years ago to PPL D1 Champions Fall 2013.  Now we want a higher commitment and higher competition.  

Hi! My name is Kourtney Edwards and I graduated from Dallas Baptist University where I played on the soccer team for four years. I was able to serve as the captain on the team for two years. I graduated as a Christian Studies Major with an emphasis in sports ministry and a minor in Biology. I attended nursing school o at Baylor School of Nursing. Long term I would like to serve on the mission field through sports and medical missions. Growing up I played soccer for Dallas Texans 90' Red and was able to participate in the National Championship. ……….. Soccer had become my identity. After that break(in the mission field)……. I learned how to find my identity in Christ. Through a couple of strange and unexpected events from the Lord, I ended up with an opportunity to play soccer for DBU with 95% of school paid ………..………..(I) look forward to the opportunity to spend time with your girls….

This young lady speaks the girls language.  I am the father of two the players, and I am so grateful that we have a coach that can really teach these girls about soccer and life.  A recent new father of player wrote this:

The bonus of this team is the idea that my daughter will not only be developed as a soccer player but also be developed as a quality young lady. I am convinced by what I have seen from the whole Liberty FC family that my daughter will have a positive experience that will affect the rest of her life.
