We’re excited to announce Kiley Norkus to Halifax Tides FC! Kiley or '“Ki” is an exceptional full-back whose drive, passion, and leadership will elevate our club.
For Ki, soccer is more than just a sport—it’s a purpose. Her commitment to the game is evident in everything she does on the pitch. Her physicality, composure, and tactical awareness makes her a constant threat. She’s the kind of player who takes pride in her own performance while consistently supporting and uplifting her teammates.
"We are a unit and a family," Ki shares. "I’ll always give my all for my teammates, whether it's making a crucial tackle or running the extra mile to help."
Ki’s career is a testament to her unyielding determination. During her time at California State University Northridge, she earned a spot on the Big West All-Academic Team and was named Big West Offensive player of the week twice. At Eastern Washington University, she played a key role in leading the team to back-to-back Big Sky Conference Championships.
On the professional stage, Ki has proven herself in top international leagues. In Spain, she was named Most Valuable Player and finished as the top scorer while playing as a winger. After transitioning to full-back in Iceland, Ki’s contributions helped her team finish in the top 3. Most recently, in Malta, earned a player of the month nomination, and helped her team reach the finals of the Assikura Women’s Knock-Out Competition.
Ki brings a wealth of experience, an unrelenting work ethic, and a passion that will inspire those around her. Her arrival marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Halifax Tides FC, and we can’t wait to see the impact she’ll make on the pitch.
