Toogood, Emily
During the course of the 2018/19 season, Emily as Captain led the club to a fantastic season with some cracking statistics: won 17, drew 1 and lost 2; scoring 110 goals and conceding just 23.
Emily has played over 70 league games for Exeter, and scored 7 goals.
Emily continued to play for City in 2020/21 as a defender.
Emily scored a hatrick in the 3rd qualifying round of the FA Cup at home (Exwick), against AEK Boco LFC on the 1st November 2020,which included a spectacular strike from outside the box. This earned Emily the "Player of the Match" award and the club's management wrote "Three goals and part of a Defence that kept it's first Clean Sheet of the Season. Emily Toogood with a fantastic performance."
During the 2nd National lockdown in November 2020 due the pandemic the team produced some articles from players about players entitled.

Emily’s replies were:-
Quickest Player: Meg, blink and she's down the other end of the pitch
Not so Quickest: Myself, move like I am an OAP
Best Trainer: Sasha, so focused
Most intelligent: Steph, seems to be able to talk in depth about anything
Most Skilful: Hope, takes on five players and squares it for someone to tap
Team Joker: Manfy, hilarious but savage
Worst Taste in Music: Manfy, not necessarily the worst but the same stuff week in week out
Most Likely to Moan: Zoe. Keeps Clive on his toes
Who gets the most fines: Must be Manfy as she never seems to have any cash to buy a can of Coke after the game
A Last Minute Penalty to Win the League, who takes it? Ella Mae, never miss
Who would be in your 5-A Side Team: Me, Meg Lightfoot, Manfy, Phoebe Baker and Anthea
Most likely to get booked: Abbie, clearly so passionate it gets mistaken
Emily made her 100th appearance for Exeter WFC on the 13th of Match 2022 against Maidenhead, away.
David Gribble wrote in April 2023
"Exeter City Women will finish the season without one of the stars of the campaign, as Emily Toogood has been diagnosed with a Weber C fracture of her distal fibula and has had her leg set in a cast to aid recovery. The full back was injured after only forty seconds of Sunday’s game, heavily falling under a challenge, and will now miss the remainder of the season. Toogood has had one of her most consistent seasons in City colours, leading the assists for the team with fourteen and also adding ten goals. Stunning free kicks against AFC Bournemouth and Portishead, alongside a dramatic injury time winner at Selsey may well go on to be key moments in the team's fight for promotion."
Emily made her 150th appearance for Exeter WFC on the 13th October 2024 away to Cheltenham.
