UNBC signs speedy forward, an LUSA U17 Player of the Year, from Chilliwack

CHILLIWACK – The University of Northern British Columbia women’s soccer program announced this past week that it has signed LUSA U17 Female Player of the Year Quinn Bradley from Chilliwack for the 2026 season and beyond.

The UNBC Timberwolves program says Bradley joins them from LUSA Soccer Club and G.W. Graham Secondary, bringing a strong technical skillset and competitive drive.

Bradley has been involved in soccer since the age of six and was lauded as the LUSA U17 Female Player of the Year. She plans to study business at UNBC.

“I love soccer because of the competitiveness, but also the relationships and friendships that you gain from the sport,” said Bradley, who has attended a few different ID Camps at UNBC in recent years. “What impressed me most about UNBC was the facilities, the student-athletes, and the atmosphere of the university.”

Bradley said the friendly, accommodating culture surrounding the Timberwolves program, and a close family connection played a major role in her decision.

Her older sister Abigayle has played each of the past two seasons at UNBC as a midfielder. so reuniting with her sister was absolutely a positive factor in Quinn’s decision to head North.

The familiarity with Coach Sedgwick was a big factor as well.

“Quinn has impressed throughout the recruiting process with her technical ability and adaptability,” shared Sedgwick. “Like her sister Abby, Quinn brings strong values and a clear focus on personal growth. She will be a valuable addition as we continue to build out this like-minded and development focused roster.”

“I really liked Neil because he cares about you individually as a player and offers great training opportunities,” concluded Bradley. “I’m so excited to play with my future teammates because everyone has already been so welcoming and kind.”
