Former Cameroon international Estelle Johnson recently visited Prairie View A M University in Texas, where she shared her wealth of experience with the universitys young athletes.
Johnson, a seasoned defender who proudly wore the Cameroon jersey during her playing career, took the opportunity to speak openly about her journey as a professional footballer. She emphasized the dedication, discipline, and resilience required to succeed in the competitive world of womens football.
Beyond her technical and tactical insights, Johnsons conversation highlighted the importance of balancing sport with education, encouraging students to pursue their ambitions both on and off the field.
Her visit provided a rare chance for the next generation of players to learn directly from someone who has navigated the highs and lows of international football, inspiring them to overcome challenges and strive for excellence.
For Johnson, mentoring young athletes is a meaningful way to give back to the sport that shaped her life, and to foster the growth of womens football in both the United States and Cameroon.
The session at Prairie View A M underscored the power of role models in sport and the enduring legacy of players who continue to inspire long after their playing days are over.
