A huge congratulations to Phoebe DB (Burton Bank), who has made her debut for the Arsenal Women's U21 Team. Phoebe was selected to join the squad this summer during their pre-season tour in Canada, having played football since the age of five. Despite some initial nerves and returning from injury, Phoebe showed great determination and skill. Since then, she has scored her first goal for Arsenal in a match against Crystal Palace — a proud moment to remember.

Reflecting on her experience so far, Phoebe had this advice for other girls who are interested in football:

“Keep going with it don’t give up — it's such an enjoyable sport.”

We are extremely proud of Phoebe's hard work, dedication, and positive attitude. She is a fantastic role model for young athletes and the growing strength of women’s football.
