Exeter City Women added to their defensive options ahead of the 2024/25 season with the signing of Courtney Jones.

Jones arrived after a successful spell at Cheltenham Town, where she was a key member in the Robins' Division One South West winning side of 2022, scoring against the Grecians in a 3-1 victory in Gloucestershire. 

As Town adapted to life in tier three, Jones would be a regular starter for Tom Davies’ side, playing on 22 occasions as they finished a respectable eighth in the division. Jones would play 17 times for the Robins last season, including a late substitute appearance as Town and City clashed in the FA Cup.

Jones started her career with Wolverhampton Wanderers before moving to Stoke City for a three-year spell. She joined Cheltenham in 2021 where she was a teammate of fellow Grecian Georgie-Marie Barbour-Gresham. Jones recently captained the UK Armed Forces Team, the defender representing the British Army.

Manager Abbie Britton is delighted to have added to her squad ahead of the new season:

“Courtney brings a wealth of experience to the team and has played a lot of tier three football. She offers a strong presence to our defensive options and has leadership qualities."

"She has been fantastic in coming into the group and I am looking forward to working with her this season.”
