Jade started her footballing journey at the FA Girls CoE (Centre of Excellence) where she represented both Aston Villa and Birmingham City at junior level. Turning 16 she then transitioned to open age playing for the reserves, whereby in that year she featured in a few first team games. In 2010 she returned to Aston Villa Ladies where she spent 10 seasons before moving up north in 2020 and playing for Blackburn Rovers Ladies. Alongside this Jade has played in Seattle (USA) and competed in the WPSL.
Having done both her FA Level 1 & FA Level 2 Football Coaching Qualifications at college, Jade was given the opportunity to coach within the FA Girls CoE with Aston Villa. A perfect opportunity to be a role model whilst sharing her experiences and knowledge, to the young girls she was coaching. Had a stint working in both India and Seattle coaching. A highlight of Jades' is being able to share the pitch as team mates with some of the young girls she coached all those years ago.
