England Golf has announced its Women's and Girls' Squads for 2024/25.

The Women's Squad consists of nine players, while the Girls' Squad has eight.

Several players from last year's Women's Squad, including Jess Baker, Rosie Belsham, and Mimi Rhodes, have turned professional.

Lottie Woad, Patience Rhodes, Isla McDonald-O’Brien, Sophia Fullbrook, and Nellie Ong continue in the Women's Squad, alongside new addition Lily Hirst.

Players progressing from the Girls' Squad to the Women's Squad include Sadie Adams, Amelia Wan, and Matilde Santilli.

The Girls' Squad welcomes new members Lila Bisset, Lauren Crump, Ellie Lichtenhein, Elizabeth Wilson, and Emily Peaford.

Ms Peaford's sister Annabel, Charlotte Naughton, and Chloe Tarbard are set for their second year in the squad.

Becca Hembrough, England Golf Women's Performance Manager, said: "2024 has been a great year for our women and girls, with a gold in the European Girls’ Team Championship and a bronze in the Women’s Team Championship, while both England Women and Girls won at their respective Home Internationals.

"Not just that but we’ve had the likes of Lottie winning the Augusta National Women’s Amateur and competing at majors, and, alongside Patience and Mimi, helping GB&I win back the Curtis Cup.

"Furthermore, with three of our women going on to become professionals, it is a testament to the great work that the England Golf coaching team and support does in helping these young players go as far as they can in the amateur game, before going on to realise their dreams in professional golf."

The Women's Squad features a mix of UK-based and US-based players.

Among the US-based players is Ms Fullbrook, 18, from The Melbourne GC in Hertfordshire, who is currently attending Florida State University.

She had top-10 finishes at the European Nations Cup and English U25 Championship in 2024, and a 16th-place finish in the Portuguese Amateur.

The UK-based players include Ms Adams, 17, from Royal Birkdale GC in Lancashire, who won the Fairhaven Trophy and Irish Girls’ Amateur Open Championship in May.

The Girls' Squad also boasts impressive young talent.

Ms Crump, 15, from Hill Valley GC in Shropshire, won the English Girls’ Open Amateur Stroke Play Championship and Scottish Girls’ U16 Open in July.

She also finished runner-up in the English Girls’ U16 Open Championship.
