Niki Moutsatsos

Kingborough Lions United FC’s head WSL Coach, Simon Edwards is introducing new faces to the WSL squad in 2023, starting with Niki Moutsatsos.

Niki has been playing the “beautiful game” since she was 10 years old. Fortunately her family moved to Canada where she discovered a love for the game. Returning to Tassie, she continued to play; playing WSL with both South Hobart and Hobart Zebras.

I’m excited to start fresh at Kingborough in what will be a massive year for female football! The women are a very positive, supportive and driven bunch and I’m looking forward to playing alongside them in 2023. Can’t wait to see what we can get out of the season! shared Niki when asked about changing clubs.

Niki is vibrant and hardworking, traits which will serve Kingborough Lions United FC well. Her fresh and positive attitude will contribute greatly to the squad and is a perfect fit for the culture here at the Den. in her “off field life”, Niki is a Teacher’s Aide. She will start her “Masters of Teaching: focus on primary teaching” in 2023. 

Welcome to the Den, Niki

Roar with the Pride!
