Ciara Marie McCormack (born 29 September 1979) is a soccer defender who plays for Treaty United. She has made eight appearances for the Republic of Ireland women's national football team.
McCormack won a scholarship to Yale University and played college soccer for four years. She spent a further year at the University of Connecticut.[1]
McCormack has featured for Boston Renegades, Vancouver Whitecaps Women and Ottawa Fury Women in the W-League. She also played for Fortuna Hjørring in Denmark and was the first North American to play in a Uefa Champions League final.[2]
Since moving to Norway in 2008, McCormack represented Toppserien clubs Asker Fotball, FK Larvik and Kolbotn Fotball.[3] She left Kolbotn for Donn Toppfotball in August 2010.[4]
In January 2023, McCormack joined Irish club Treaty United.[5]
In October 2023, McCormack was installed as co-owner and CEO of a reinvigorated organisation featuring Limerick’s only professional men’s and women’s soccer teams, with a focus on youth development. The takeover makes McCormack the first female CEO in the League of Ireland.[6]
In late 2007 McCormack delayed her arrival in Norway to attend a training camp with the Canada women's national soccer team.[7]
However, McCormack first appeared for the Republic of Ireland in three friendly games against the United States in September 2008.[1] She then played in both defence and midfield for Ireland.[8] McCormack's father Barry is from Athlone and her mother is from County Cork.[9]
She won the last of her eight caps in a defeat by the Netherlands in August 2010. On 5 May 2014, Ireland manager Susan Ronan recalled McCormack to an experimental squad for a friendly against the Basque Country.[10] McCormack started Ireland's 2–0 defeat in Azpeitia, which was not classified as a full international fixture.[11]
