History: Jackie Hadden, Matildas Cap 72
Following a three year period without any Matildas debutants, Jackie Hadden made her debut in 1994 against Russia. Jackie played for Blacktown in her pathway to representative football and won the Dana Cup in 1993 (U19).
Jackie played twice for the Matildas (1 A international) and went on to the USA, playing college football for Central Connecticut State University.
