Jill Scott MBE is a celebrated former professional footballer, and was part of the England squad that won the UEFA Women’s Euro 2022, the first time an England team has ever won the European Championship. Jill is the second most capped England player with 161 appearances and represented England in ten major tournaments.
She started her professional career playing for Sunderland Women, then for Everton Ladies until 2013, when she transferred to Manchester City. During her footballing career she contributed to multiple title victories, including the Women’s Super League and several Women’s FA Cups and League Cups.
After hanging up her boots in 2022, Jill has become a successful broadcaster, pundit, and barista. In 2022 she won I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! and is blue team captain on Sky’s A League of Their Own and part of the regular ‘Stick to Football’ panel for The Overlap alongside Gary Neville, Ian Wright, Roy Keane and Jamie Carragher.
Jill also co-owns Boxx2Boxx Coffee, a highly-rated café in Manchester, with her fiancée Shelly where she can often be found on her ‘days off’ with a Flat White in hand.
From being bullied as the only girl on her first football team to winning the Euros, Jill joins us to share insights on what’s worked, and failed, for her on the pitch – and in life.
