Daisy Pearce is a pioneer of women’s football. She grew up in country Victoria, playing footy with the boys until the age of 13, when she was told that she wasn’t allowed to anymore.

Later in her teenage years, she discovered women’s football for the first time, and has since gone on to become one of the faces of the AFLW competition. 

After giving birth to twins in 2019, Daisy successfully returned to the AFLW, and is forging a path for women in the media, commentary and coaching space.
