Trina Rochelle Davis (born 6 September 2001) is an American-born Fijian footballer who plays as a forward for the Fiji women's national team. She is the first Fiji woman professional soccer player.
Personal life
Davis is from Marysville, Washington. She is eligible to represent Fiji through her mother, who moved to the United States at 22.
Career
Davis made her international debut for Fiji in the 2018 OFC Women's Nations Cup qualification tournament, hosted by Fiji. She scored a hat-trick against Vanuatu in her first match. Davis had arrived in Fiji with the mistaken belief that she would be training with the national under-17 team, but was instead placed on the senior women's team. Trina Davis signed a national letter of intent with Grambling State University for the 2019–20 academic year.
In February 2021, Trina Davis signed for Israeli Professional Football Team ASA Tel Aviv University. Following a recurring bad behavior towards her teammates, as well as poor footballing performances added to a difficult geopolitical climate in the Middle East. The club terminates the player immediately.
After interviews in which Davis attacked the Israeli club for its alleged mismanagement of her departure from the country, the club gave its version of the facts in an Israeli newspaper stating that the player had not told the whole truth and underlining the limited performance of the player and her condescending and insulting behavior towards her teammates.
In September 2022 she joined Puerto Rico Sol FC.
