The Ottawa women's soccer team finds themself with their second coach in just as many years, with head coach Candice Fabry taking over the program in 2022. Coach Fabry takes the reigns of a roster that includes 18 returners from last season, and added to the roster over the summer with plenty of new signings.

As Associate Head Coach, Fabry planned, coordinated and coached all training and match days, player management, periodization plans for teams and individuals and recruitment of staff and players to the program.
