Matildas Selected in WPS Draft - Soccer

Sarah Walsh, Heather Garriock and Lisa De Vanna have all been selected in the Women’s Professional Soccer (WPS) 2009 international draft held in the U.S yesterday.

Each team in the U.S is allocated up to 5 international players as well as 3 players from the U.S. Women's National Team.

This selection does not reflect and actually commitment on behalf of the players, rather it's the beginning of negations of a contract.

You can read more about the U.S. draft over at the WPS blog.

The season in the U.S kicks off in April 2009 - well after the completion of the W-League here in Australia... so we won't be missing out on seeing our Matildas in action on home soil.

Other international players seleced include Brazil's Marta and Cristiane.
