Natalie Bermúdez-Morales
Head Coach, Puerto Rico Women’s National Lacrosse Team
Natalie Bermúdez-Morales has lead the Puerto Rico Women's National teams since it's inception from 2017-2022. With a passion for her Puerto Rican culture, and being raised in New Jersey, this experience has had more meaning than just wins and losses. Developing a sisterhood that has been lacking where we all have grown to play and helping develop young Puerto Rican players as role models for the future generations of athletes that look like them held the utmost importance.
Bermúdez-Morales holds an 16-4 coaching record in international tournament competition for Puerto Rico, recently in their first ever appearance in the summer of 2022 led the Senior Women's National Team at the Women's World Championship to a 5-3 record placing 11th out of 28 Countries, also having led the 2019 Women’s U19 team at the World Championship to a perfect 8 wins and finally guided the 2019 Women’s Senior Team to a Silver Medal at the PALA Regional Qualifying Tournament.
Bermúdez-Morales as a college player, was Georgian Court University’s first 100-point scorer in school history. She is also a USA Lacrosse certified match official. Her family hails from Rio Grande, PR.
