How did you first become interested in football and when did you start playing?
I first became interested in football from the minute I could stand pretty much, I played all the time on the green outside my house. I was also very competitive from the very start, loved making the boys look silly 😂
What was your first team?
Deggington Colts Under 7’s
Who was your sporting hero growing up?
Obvious choice, but Kelly Smith - I watched her a lot from a young age. She was another level to everyone else on the pitch, I always wanted to be as good as her.
What positions have you played?
The only position I have never played is centre back!
Which teams have you played for?
Deddington Colts, Easington, Arsenal, Reading & Plymouth Argyle.
What’s been your footballing highlight so far?
The season at Argyle where we got a lot further than expected in the FA cup - and won the league & the Devon cup.
What are your hopes for the new season?
To enjoy my football, play well and for us to win a trophy 🏆👀
What are your long-term goals in football?
To get more goals than yellow cards.
What advice would you give to young girls who want to play football?
Talent means nothing when it comes with a bad attitude. Work hard and be prepared to make sacrifices, but don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Enjoy every game and every training session!
