Following the departure of Libbie Trainor to Sunderland West End during pre-season, the club identified the need to strengthen attacking options. Grace, who initially joined on a trial basis, impressed both on and off the pitch and has now officially committed to Pools.

A technically gifted player with strong link-up ability, Grace also brings the determination, work ethic, and goal threat required to make a real impact this season. She has settled quickly into her new surroundings, scoring in both of her pre-season appearances and showing herself to be a constant danger in and around the box.

Head Coach Gareth Horwood said:

“Grace is exactly the type of player we want at this club – young, energetic, and ambitious. She fits the profile perfectly and will add real competition to our attacking areas. We’re excited to see her development and the impact she can make this season.”

Welcome, Grace!
