📝New Signing Announcement

Bena McRae joins Aberdeen City Ladies FC

We’re thrilled to confirm the permanent signing of Bena ahead of the 2025/26 Season. 🔴⚪️

Bena shared this:
“I’ve played football since I was 10 years old, all through Turriff youth starting at U12s, then U14s and U16s. Recently, over the past two seasons, I’ve been playing for U18s, serving as captain in my first season at U18. The past 2 years I’ve also been selected to play for the Aberdeenshire football squad. I’m looking forward to my season ahead and happy to be continuing football this season.”

🗣️Manager Ally Beattie shared his thoughts:

“We’re delighted to welcome Bena to Aberdeen City!
Bena joins us after 2 seasons of football with Turriff U18s. She’s a composed and confident defender, comfortable on the ball and capable of playing anywhere across the backline.
Bena brings valuable depth to the squad, and we’re really looking forward to supporting her development here at the club.”

Thank you Jill for the pic 📸
