Sandra Couture (born March 15, 1983, in Saint-Georges, Quebec) is a Canadian soccer player who last played for French club Juvisy of the Division 1 Féminine. She plays as a striker and joined her current club ahead of the 2009–10 season after a successful career at the Université de Montréal with the Montreal Carabins. From 2002 to 2006, Couture scored a team-record 52 goals, was named the Player of the Year once, and was named to the All-Canadian First Team on two occasions.[1] Prior to joining Juvisy in 2009, she worked as an assistant coach at the university after previous injuries delayed her opportunities to start her club career in France.[1] Though, Couture hasn't represented Canada on international level, she has represented her nation at the 2005 and 2007 editions of the Summer Universiade.[1]
