Ipswich Town FC Women have re-signed midfielder or right-back Ellie Rossiter from Davis & Elkins College in West Virginia, USA.

The 22-year-old previously scored four goals in 24 appearances having made her senior debut as a teenager under former boss Ralph Pruden after joining the club aged seven and progressing through from the Centre of Excellence.

She subsequently signed a four-year scholarship with the Senators in 2015 but rejoined the club on trial this summer following her graduation and featured in the recent 3-1 friendly victory against Nottingham Forest.

Rossiter, who will wear the number 14 shirt, impressed enough to be added to manager Joe Sheehan’s squad.

portman_blue added 16:22 - Jul 30 I clicked on the 'Squad' tab to find out about the rest of the ITFC Women players. No mention - just the men and their squad numbers are listed. Would have thought that if you are giving out news of ITFC Women then there should be squads, fixtures etc.

backinbeige added 16:36 - Jul 30 Agreed, portman_blue, however it's still good to get the news about the women's team. I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if duplicating all relevant parts of the site so there's a men's and women's version to maintain each week would Involve more time and money than the site can afford to spare at the moment.
