In the weekend’s title decider, a 2-0 win at Coventry Sphinx, she governed the back line ensuring the clean sheet and the title.

Steve Heighton, her old manager at Eastlands said: “Erin had a very solid game and the move to adult football has only improved her.

“She is highly rated and already has American universities offering her football scholarships. She’s a real credit to the town and one to watch out for.”
