Brisbane Roar are excited to announce that dynamic Young Matildas forward Daisy Brown has signed a two-year scholarship contract ahead of the 25/26 Ninja A-League season.
After growing up in Singapore, Brown moved to Sydney and played her junior football at Sydney University Soccer Football Club before moving to Brisbane and joining the Football Queensland QAS program in 2019.
The 19-year-old was called up to the CommBank Young Matildas for their national team training camp in June.
Brown also featured for Brisbane Roar in a pre-season match against the Queensland Women’s State Team last season.
“It’s really exciting, it’s a big honour,” Brown said.
“I’ve been going to the games for a long time now, really looking up to the girls for many years. It’s a dream come true.
“I’d love to make my A-League debut. That’s a big thing on my list. Then get some game time and establish myself in the team.”
Brown has excelled in the QAS program and is a promising young Queensland talent that Head Coach Alex Smith looks forward to bringing into the squad for the season ahead.
“Daisy is a talented striker with a tremendous attitude towards the game,” Smith said.
“She has worked very hard to progress to professional football and I couldn’t be happier for her.
“She has a habit of scoring spectacular goals, and I am very much looking forward to seeing her progress within the program and national teams.”
