Clark receives international call-up

Clark receives international call-up

Craig Singleton19 Dec 2017 - 15:48

Boston United Ladies goalkeeper Olivia Clark has received her first senior international call-up.

The 16-year-old has been included into the Wales women's senior squad and B squad combined camp in January.

It has been quite a month for the teenager, who had just been called up to the Wales women's under-19s squad for the first time.

Clark has started in all but one of the Pilgrims’ Ladies matches this season and has only conceded two goals so far.

Ladies manager Nick Reeson said: “It’s another feather in the cap for the football club, but the main thing is that it’s well-deserved.

“We think a lot of Olivia at Boston United. It seems like when Olivia went for the recent under-19s trials that they must also think a lot of her to include her in the senior squad so soon.

“She's got lots of potential and hopefully this is just the start of even more international recognition for Olivia."

This is the second international call-up for the Pilgrims within the last week with under-16s player Jess Edwards receiving her first call-up for Scotland women's under-16s training camp in January.

Everyone at Boston United is delighted for Olivia and would like to wish her good luck in what will be an excellent experience.
