Arsenal striker Julie Fleeting is Scotland's most prolific goal scorer, with over 100 goals. She has played for Scotland since the age of fifteen, making her debut against Wales.

Julie was the first Scot to play in the professional WUSA league in America. She spent two successful seasons with San Diego Spirit where she was voted 'Most Valuable Player' by her team mates and coaches and won her club's 'Golden Boot' accolade.

As a regular scorer for Arsenal in the English Women's Premier League, Julie was voted 'Player's Player of the Year' at the FA Women's Football Awards in June 2005. A qualified teacher, Julie was awarded an MBE for services to women's football in 2008. She is currently taking a break from football after the birth of her first child.
