Bev Priestman reveals she refrained from leaving her residence in Canada for a month following the Paris Olympic drone-spying controversy. The ex-Canada women’s coach expressed feeling unsafe due to intense media attention, which took a toll on her family. Priestman, now leading the Wellington Phoenix FC women’s team in New Zealand, eagerly anticipates returning to work. She chose to take a break to reflect and grow from the challenging experience without delving into specifics. Priestman, along with two others, received one-year suspensions from FIFA due to drone incident repercussions. Her current coaching role coincides with the conclusion of her FIFA ban. Priestman’s previous coaching experience includes various roles with Canada Soccer and England’s women’s teams.
