The team will compete in the UEFA qualifiers for the 2025 World Cup, facing Finland, Moldova, and Slovenia this October.

Success in the qualifiers would see the squad advance to the World Cup in the Philippines, where the top 16 teams will vie for the title.

This selection marks a key milestone for both players and the future of women's futsal in England. Following the path of º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ alumna Mary Earps, º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ Sport are incredibly proud to see Alicia and Joy recognised on the international stage.

Balancing 11-a-side commitments at º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ with regular futsal competition for London Helvecia (Grimmond) and Bolton Futsal (Lowe), their selections reflect their dedication and hard work.

All of us at º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ wish Alicia, Joy, and the England Futsal Lionesses the best of luck as they take on this exciting challenge.
