Melchie Dumornay keeps making history in French women’s football. On Wednesday, she was named Player of the Month for September 2026, becoming the first winner of the new UNFP Trophy in that category.
The award caps a stellar start to the season with Olympique Lyonnais, the runaway Première Ligue leaders who have dominated since the season began.
After an impressive September, the Mirebalais native posted staggering league numbers: 6 goals and 2 assists in just three matches, including a hat-trick against Fleury and a brace against Paris FC.
To win her first individual award of the season, the Lyon star beat out her German teammate Jule Brand and FC Fleury forward Sanaa Daoudi.
Melchie Dumornay and the Grenadières will play a friendly against Japan on Friday before taking on Australia next Tuesday.
Against two heavyweights from the world’s top 10, the training camp will give Haiti a full-scale, high-intensity test — an ideal way to measure the Haitian team’s progress against the elite of women’s football.
