The duo will add to the club’s New Zealand influence, which was already strong after the appointment of Dave Edmondson as coach.
Edmondson hails from England but has strong links to the female game in New Zealand after coaching the national women’s U-17 team and northern league outfit Claudelands Rovers.
Green comes to Adelaide from Auckland side Three Kings United and, despite being just 21, brings plenty of experience to Edmondson’s youthful outfit.
The fullback is a former captain of the New Zealand U-20 squad and has represented her country at four FIFA tournaments, including the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Germany in July.
She has played 36 ‘A’ internationals for New Zealand and found the net four times.
Adelaide United kick off their W-League campaign against Canberra on October 22 at Hindmarsh Stadium in a curtain raiser to the men’s A-League match between Adelaide and Sydney FC.
There could be several New Zealand internationals on the field as Football Ferns goalkeeper Aroon Clansey may be between the sticks for Canberra.
