Eastside FC has become an amazing home, where Claire Knock has been fortunate to work with many talented players since joining in 2022. Recently, she completed her USSF A license, continuously seeking opportunities for growth both on and off the field.

Claire's coaching journey includes being recognized as a 30 Under 30 recipient and participating in the She Believes mentorship program. In 2021, she had the honor of working with the Antigua and Barbuda women’s national team, coaching the U17, U19, and full teams, which was an invaluable experience.

She believes in prioritizing the individual before the athlete, recognizing that understanding each player's motivations is essential for fostering a lifelong passion for the sport.

Outside of coaching, Claire enjoys spending quality time with her family and enjoying all the sports the PNW has to offer. She has also secretly become a Mariners fan!
