Head Coach Heather Fitzgerald was a decorated player at both Ponchatoula High School and Louisiana Tech University. As a coach, Heather has coached at the Ruston Soccer Club and most recently at Mandeville Soccer Club, whose 18/19 elite team was the 2017 State Champion and GSPL Champion. Last year, Heather was also the head girls varsity soccer coach at St. Martin’s. Heather has earned three of her national coaching licenses (F, E, and D) with the United States Soccer Federation and is looking forward to pursuing her C license in 2018. Professionally, Heather is a personal trainer with certifications in ELDOA and is very excited to work with Coach Brattain to design a high quality High Performance program for the girls. Heather is very excited about the challenge of leading this prestigious program and building the necessary strong relationships that will allow her to push the girls to play and compete at a high level.
Supporting Heather as the Assistant Varsity Coach will be Erin Brennan. Erin recently graduated from Spring Hill College in Mobile, Alabama and will also join the Athletic Department as the Assistant to the Athletic Director. Erin played four years of high school soccer in St. Louis and then collegiately at Spring Hill for four years. Erin’s enthusiasm, work ethic, and on site presence in the athletic office will be an invaluable asset to Heather, the girls, and the program.
