“Emma is confident on the ball, makes intelligent movements on the field and can take over a game in an instant. Good players take advantage of opportunities when they present themselves. Great players create those opportunities for themselves and their teammates. This would be an understatement for Emma.”

Colin Curtis

Head Coach - head coach of Highland High
