OTTAWA — The Ottawa Redblacks appointed Nadia Doucoure as an offensive qualify control coach Thursday.

Doucoure served as a scout with Ottawa last year after participating in the franchise’s Women in Football internship program during training camp. In 2021, Doucoure, a native of France, became the first female coach at Carleton University and is now the CFL’s second full-time female coach.

Tanya Walters was hired as a defensive assistant in 2022 by the B.C. Lions

“I’m glad to be back full-time with the Redblacks and to be taking this next step in my career,” said Doucoure. “I can’t wait to get on the field this season representing this great organization.
