I’ve been a bit quiet lately. I got busy wrapping up high school in general. I am now graduated and no longer playing high school soccer. 🌼⚽🌼 Keep The Game Beautiful Podcast 🌼⚽🌼 will be making a return! I will be releasing an episode this Monday and Monday the 20th. Stay tuned for what’s to come!

An unreal experience. I am incredibly honored to have had the chance to work two high school state championship games.

Great day to cheer on my own all-star '22 Marion High School Girls Soccer grad & gk Anna Tuuri as AR2 on the girls game. There's more than one way to earn your ticket to the All-Star Match. #ThirdTeam #SheCanRef

What an amazing night with Women Lead Change in Cedar Rapids for Girls With Goals hosting Erica Mulholland, MS CSCS 👸🏼 and a parents panel. So exciting to have opportunities like this for athletes in our community!

I have had many amazing opportunities as an official lately. I worked two Iowa high school state championship games, alongside the high school all stars game. I also traveled to St. Louis for my first ever regional presidents cup. This week I had my first WPSL semi pro game too!

How are we expecting to keep women in the game if they aren't protected? For many years I have looked up to Candice, I am inspired by her bravery and compassion. Thank you Candice for showing young women like me that we belong in this game.

The first ever Marion Girls Youth Soccer Camp is in the books! It was so cool meeting all of these future Wolves! The biggest of thank you’s go out to all the team members that volunteered this week. It couldn’t have happened without your dedication. #Together

The past 6 days were spent with a group of referees my age. We had the chance to learn and grow together while at Iowa Soccer D Camp. I am incredibly grateful to have experienced this, and know it will help so many more young officials!

So excited to be returning to WAGS Tournament in a few weeks! I learned so much while I was there, and I’ve only continued to grow in the past few months. Counting down the days! WAGSinsoccer

So honored to be apart of this experience for the 2nd time. I learned so much over the weekend and had a great time. I hope to be back again soon!

So excited! Last day of my first semester of college is done on Friday, then headed to Kansas City to be part of this great experience!

Can’t wait! Excited to make my fourth podcast row appearance and attend my fifth convention!

Incredibly excited to take part of a session moderating members of U.S. Soccer Extended National Teams. Come check it out this Saturday at 3:30!

My very first episode was Christina Unkel an amazing referee and person. Now all the way to the hundredth with another phenomenal guest!

I knew this day was coming but I can't believe he's gone. In the words of his wife, "...fitting he passed away in the month we honor him and bring awareness to Huntington's Disease." The blue wristband will have heightened symbolism and weight when we wear it on Saturday night.

The blue wristbands held a stronger meaning today. The game started with rain and ended with sun. Without Terry, I would not be the referee I am today. Thank you Terry for the power you have instilled in me. #LetsTalkAboutHD

That's a pretty tight line Anna Tuuri

Always continuing to learn and grow. Was able to work many in season and post season matches this year, along with the 2a State Final for the second year in a row. So much fun and can’t wait for more referee fun in the coming weeks!

Today was the wrap-up of Midwest Presidents Cup in Cincinnati. Over the last five days Anna Tuuri had three whistles, two 4th officials, and four Assistant Referees including earning an 18UG Semi and a 14UB Final. 48hrs til Midwest Regionals in St. Louis!

What a week, fifth convention in the bag. Before we got to #StrongerUnited24 we both pondered our purpose. We knew it would be different as 🌼⚽🌼 Keep The Game Beautiful Podcast 🌼⚽🌼 Pod stayed home. Anna Tuuri saying "I'm no longer a kid." Me shifting to advocacy work for Disabilities Allies. ..
