DURHAM, N.C. – Coming off playing in the NCAA Championship Sunday, Duke University junior defender Rebecca Quinn will head to Brazil for the International Tournament of Natal to meet up with the Canadian National Team.
This will be the first action for the Canada Women’s National Team since placing sixth at the FIFA Women’s World Cup this past summer. The team is getting prepared to qualify for the upcoming 2016 Rio Olympics.
“The tournament in Brazil is part of the assessment phase, so we will be bringing in a lot of young players in November, and through into the tournament in Brazil in December,” Canada head coach John Herdman said.
