Corinne Louise Yorston (born 15 June 1983) is an English international footballer who plays as a defender[3] for Keynsham Town. Although primarily a left-back, who won most of her England caps playing in central defence, she has also played as a midfielder at club level. She has also previously represented English Universities.[4]

Club career

Yorston began her career with Southampton Saints.[5] She was inspired by Southampton coach Sue Lopez.[6] In the 2003 close season, Yorston joined Fulham Ladies[7] with whom she made her England debut in 2003. Soon after this she suffered a couple of stress fractures that kept her out of the game for nearly a year.[8]

She joined Bristol Academy in the 2005 close season,[9] and went on to have three seasons as club captain. She joined Arsenal Ladies in July 2009,[10][11] but returned to Bristol in 2010. She was loaned out to Keynsham Town to maintain fitness ahead of Bristol's FA WSL season, which began in April 2011.[12]

At the end of the 2014 season, Yorston left Bristol Academy to join FA WSL 2 side Yeovil Town.[13]

International career

Yorston won 19 caps at Under-19 level and also played at Under-23 level before joining the England senior team. She made her debut, as a substitute, in the game against Germany in September 2003 and played, again as a substitute, in the game against Denmark in February 2004. Her next game for England was not until March 2007 when she was a substitute for Rachel Unitt in the game against Scotland.

In May 2009, Yorston was one of the first 17 female players to be given central contracts by the Football Association.[14]

She was allotted 151 when the FA announced their legacy numbers scheme to honour the 50th anniversary of England’s inaugural international.[15][16]

Personal life

Yorston has a degree in biochemistry and graduated with a Master's from the University of Bath,[17] where she had been awarded a Talented Athlete Scholarship.[18] After completing her Masters she began studying for an MPhil at the FA National Women's Player Development Centre at Loughborough University.[19]
