Keira Ferns is a very promising defender currently playing for West Ham United’s U21 Academy team in the WSL Academy League (highest level youth league in the UK). She also plays for the Brentford Women’s FC 1st Team.
Keira is a Central Defender, but can also play as a LB or RB. She is looking at College options for Fall 2024.
Prior to signing for West Ham, Keira played for Tottenham Hotspur U16 and represented the Independent Schools FA national team.
As a defender, Keira is fearless and physical, but also possesses a great deal of composure and control. She reads the game well and positions herself to time tackles and interceptions.
On the ball, Keira looks to make forward passes and break pressure whenever possible. She is not afraid to carry the ball into the midfield and find teammates in space once pressure closes in.
Keira has a current GPA of appox. 3.0. She is predicted to achieve x3 Distinction* grades in her current courses – equivalent to x3 ‘A’ grades – which will further strengthen her GPA by the time she graduates in Summer, 2024.
