FORMER Wath Academy football scholar Fallon Connolly-Jackson has signed her first professional contract at Sheffield United.
The Scotland under-19 international made the step into the senior first team squad at Bramall Lane last season, making her debut in September 2023 in a win against Lewes, going on to make multiple senior appearances across the campaign.
The left back, who has recently turned 18, signed her first pro contract at the Blades this month.
She said: “I think it’s an unreal feeling.
“It’s a big season ahead and I can’t wait to get started.
“It’s a dream come true.
“Since I was young, it’s all I’ve wanted to do.
“To finally be here, it’s hard to put into words.”
She joins fellow Wath alumni Eva Butler who scored her first senior goal for the Blades in a 2-1 loss at Durham Women on Sunday.
