About this listen

Today is International Women’s Day and I am pleased to introduce Mallory MacDonald who works for Halifax Wanderers local club partner Halifax County. Mallory is the second female guest on the podcast who has the distinction of being the first in her role in Nova Scotia. We had Kenzie Lalonde on the show (episode 5) who was the first female to announce a game in the Quebec Major Hockey League and Kenzie has continued to soar by going to the Olympics recently where she is currently representing Nova Scotia and Canada as a journalist.

Mallory is the first ever female Director of football in Nova Scotia. Yes you heard that right football, not soccer as it is commonly referred to in North America. Many before Mallory have done the work, but were not recognized with the title so we hope to see this change now that Mallory has laid the foundation.
