RCL Ambassador Jennifer Cudjoe saw Ernestina’s potential and determination. Through the Rush Soccer network and the support of RCL, Ernestina was offered a scholarship. Ernestina is now a proud student-athlete at the University of Providence.

Growing up in Ghana, Ernestina Ofori fell in love with soccer at a very young age. And it didn’t take her long to realize how soccer was more than just a game—it was a pathway to a different kind of life.
