The Newcastle Jets are delighted to announce that 16-year-old Academy graduate Alexis Collins has signed a scholarship deal for the 2024/25 season.
Collins who plays as a striker will play her first season in the Ninja A-League after coming through the Club’s Academy.
Collins is excited for her opportunity.
“Signing with the Jets has been great. To get this opportunity has been a goal of mine ever since starting in the Academy in the Under 13’s.
I’m excited to play with an incredible bunch of players and my new goal is to help this team make the finals once again.”
Newcastle Jets Head Coach Ryan Campbell said.
“Alexis is a player that has worked extremely hard on her game. Her physical attributes have always been obvious , however she has worked very hard at the technical areas of her game. She was the most dominant attacking player at the National Youth Championships in Melbourne in July and has slotted seamlessly into pre-season training with the squad.
I am looking forward to working more with Alexis and am excited to see what she can do this season.”
