Club career


Ross grew up in Stenhousemuir and played on boys' teams before, at the age of 15, scoring a record 56 goals in one season for Falkirk Girls.[3] Prior to joining Glasgow City in 2007, Ross spent nine years with Newburgh who later folded.[4]

Ross won a full set of domestic medals with Glasgow City, and also featured in the UEFA Women's Champions League.[3]


International career


Ross made two appearances for the Scotland under-19 team before a broken ankle derailed her progress at international level.[5] After a lengthy absence, she was surprised to be drafted into the senior team – at left back – for a 1–0 World Cup qualifying win over Switzerland at McDiarmid Park in April 2006.[3]

Ross became a national team regular and won her 50th cap against the same opposition in June 2010.[5] She retired from international football in August 2017.[2]
