Ms. Woo is a former FIFA and NISOA National Referee. She has worked 18 NCAA Final Fours and the 2003 FIFA World Cup.

She also serves as an NCAA Soccer Regional Rep with responsibilities assigning NCAA championship matches and the management of officials at NCAA events including Final Fours & Regional Clinics. She has been involved in the development of technical materials for training of NCAA soccer officials.

Ms. Woo also currently serves US Soccer as a New England National Assignor, National Referee Coach and as a member of the National Referee Committee.

Ms. Woo's mentally stimulating presentation, which focused on PROFESSIONALISM, both on and off the field, created a lively and extremely valuable discussion. Based upon her wealth of international and national experiences, she emphasized the importance of being reliable, honest, fit, punctual and accountable. Ms. Woo detailed the value of knowing the rules, communicating appropriately and in a timely manner. She also stressed that professionals maintain high ethical standards, demonstrate integrity, show a willingness to learn, maintain a positive appearance, are approachable and not biased. She encouraged everyone to be their best at all times, to evaluate prior performances and to continually strive for improvement. Those attending the GISOA Clinic were blessed and fortunate to learn many valuable lessons from Ms. Rachel Woo. She is truly a PROFESSIONAL!
