Sports Person of the Week
Sharon Collins
Friday, March 3, 2006
When not working as a sales rep for Motor World, Sharon
Collins lives and breathes football.
She started out playing the game in Jamaica many years
ago, but has spent the last 13 years in the Cayman Islands, and it is here
that her involvement in football has really blossomed. From being a player,
Collins has progressed to be involved in many other levels of the game.
In 2001, she became involved as an official, which
makes her one of the few female match officials in Cayman. Her involvement
on the sidelines goes well beyond officiating, as she is also the coach of
the Elite FC under 17 girls team. Under her leadership, the team has become
one of the top teams in the league.
When asked how she spends her free time, Collins does
not need to think twice before answering.
“Well, it certainly involves football!,” she says with
a smile, before rushing off to yet another football match.
