Amy Cardarelle's Bio

I grew up in and went to Edina High School.  I went on to play soccer at the University of Wisconsin - Madison and earned a degree in Education.  My senior year at Wisconsin, we played in the Final Four for the Division 1 Women's National Soccer Championship.  I have coached soccer for over 20 years after graduating from Wisconsin. I coached soccer at Edina, Blake and Minnetonka before my 15 years coaching at South.  In addition to coaching soccer, I have also coached high school hockey, badminton and gymnastics.  Besides coaching, I taught coaching theory at the University of MN for over 5 years.  

I have a daughter who graduated from South in 2014 and is attending Drake college in Des Moines, IA and a son, who is a junior at Washburn.  I am a co-owner of a land surveying business with my father, Frank.  We currently live in Edina with our 2 dogs - Luna and Rosie.
