Most players would travel anywhere in the country to be part of the national team.
Bella Moore (East Bridgewater, Mass.) could be traveling to the other side of the world.
The Tabor Academy sophomore goalkeeper was recently added to the Junior Matilda’s Extended Squad, which is Australian for the U-17 women’s national program. Moore has dual citizenship because her father, Todd Moore, was born and raised in Australia. They began contacting Australian women’s U-17 head coach Rae Dower in February, cleared Bella’s legal citizenship and received official word that Bella was added to the extended list in April.
