Despite her potential in ballet, Paige suddenly realized in 2006 that she wanted to pursue a career in football. Her sisters tried to change her mind, but to no avail.

The American enrolled at UNLV Physical Education University to study soccer. That's where the beauty's athletic journey began.

At first, Paige played successfully for the local team, and after graduating, she was invited to join Portugal's Braga. She joined the club together with her close friend Machaela George. The footballer plays as a left back, but she doesn't appear on the field very often due to injuries.
