Car Quiz: Rachel Lee (Durham WFC)
She Kicks, issue 31, November 2015 p.65
The Car Quiz, a regular feature marking how much time footballers spend driving, turns to Durham WFC’s Rachel Lee, known as Shorty. She drives a Nissan Juke Acenta Premium named, unoriginally by her own admission, Duke the Juke, and reckons that as a player it would be a centre midfielder along the lines of Ross Barkley: dependable, with presence and a touch of class. Her ideal personalised plate, RL16 90, combines her initials and date of birth. Precious about the car and forever cleaning it, she struggles to name five permanent items but lists boots in the boot, an air freshener, a phone charger, a gym bag and some make-up. Working in Bradford while playing for Durham means around two hours to training and perhaps twelve hours a week driving. She car-shares with Yorkshire-based players and coach Andy Thorpe, sleeping or singing along to Magic Radio.
