BECKY BURLEIGH
2021 Emcee

Becky Burleigh has been the Head Coach for the University of Florida Women's Soccer Team for 24 seasons. During her time at the helm of the UF soccer team, Burleigh, has led UF to a NCAA Championship, two NCAA College Cup appearances, 14 Southeastern Conference titles and 21 NCAA Championships berths. Along the way, Burleigh picked up National (1998) and SEC Coach of the Year (2012, ‘10, ‘08, ‘00 & '96) honors.

Since retiring from coaching at UF, Becky will begin her UF teaching career this Fall as a professor in the

College of Health and Human Performance and recently accepted the interim head coaching position with the Orlando Pride.

Prior to being named Florida’s first head soccer coach, Burleigh coached the Berry (Ga.) College Lady Fury for five seasons (1989-93), when she compiled an 82-23-6 overall record. During her five-year coaching tenure at Berry, Burleigh guided the Lady Fury to two NAIA national championships (1990 and 1993) and was also named NAIA National Coach of the Year during the same two seasons. Burleigh was named NAIA Regional Coach of the Year in her first season as head coach at Berry in 1989, when her squad finished as the national runner-up. At Berry, Burleigh compiled a 76.6 win percentage, as she lost only seven games to NAIA opponents during her five seasons of coaching the Lady Fury.

Becky Burleigh is a winning coach both on and off the field and we are thrilled to have this her join us as our guest Emcee this year!
