Laura Koller: The footballer from Rosegg shines as the district's top scorer
In the canton of Rosegg, everything revolves around Laura Koller, the 25-year-old goalscorer for SV Wernberg. She has been passionate about football since she was a child and started playing with the ball at the age of five. Whether on the playground or the sports field – football is her passion.
Koller is currently not only shining on the pitch, but is also leading the ranking of the best goalscorers in Villach, with an impressive 16 goals in the current season. Her coach, Herbert Orter, emphasizes that she plays in the ten position, where she can utilize her skills as a goalscorer, playmaker and pioneer in every game. The high quality of her game is evident in her collaboration with Lisa Marie Frank, who was also able to score many goals thanks to her passes.
Family and sport
For the single mother of two children, whom she calls Theo and Sophia, sport is of central importance. She often goes on bike rides with her children to show them the joy of exercise. "It is important to introduce children to different sports at an early age. Sport promotes physical balance and mental health," emphasizes Koller. Thanks to the support of her parents, August and Tanja Kropiunig, she is able to combine her passion for football with family obligations and her job.
Koller worked as a trainee ski instructor, but is forced to reorient herself professionally due to the closure of the ski lift. Her background in tourism could help her find a new career path, although she doesn't want to jeopardize her place in football. “It is important to me that football remains part of my life,” she emphasizes. She finds inspiration not only in her family, but also in her idol Cristiano Ronaldo.
Laura Koller shows that sport and family do not have to be contradictory, but can go hand in hand. Her development as a player and mother is an inspiring example for many in the region who also seek balance between hobbies and family responsibilities.
