Career

Kerschowski was a successful track and field athlete, had to retire due to a knee injury in 2000. She then started to play football with her twin sister Isabel. One day when the twins went out to buy football shoes, a manager from the club BSC Marzahn invited them for a practice session. In 2005, they both moved to 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam. A year later, the twins won the European under 19 Championship. Monique scored one goal while her sister scored twice. The Kerschowski twins won this title also in 2007. Monique suffered a severe knee injury in September 2007. Several further injuries let her retire in 2012.[1]

Kerschowski played for Germany at the 2006 and 2008 FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship.[2]
