Selenia Iacchelli (born 5 June 1986) is an Italian Canadian soccer player who is allocated to the Western New York Flash of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL). A midfielder, she represented Canada at the 2004 FIFA U-19 Women's World Championship and 2006 FIFA U-20 Women's World Championship. After a series of injuries she made her debut for the senior Canadian team at the age of 27 in November 2013, in a 0–0 draw with Mexico.[1]

Iacchelli's move to Western New York Flash collapsed in April 2014 when she failed the medical.[2] A year earlier she had agreed a move to Doncaster Rovers Belles of the English FA WSL, but broke her arm.[3]
