Press Conference: Ho speaks to the media ahead of Everton clash

Martin Ho will have Drew Spence back available for selection ahead of our Barclays Women’s Super League clash with Everton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday (11.55am UK).

The experienced midfielder has missed our last three games through suspension after she was shown a red card in last month’s trip to West Ham United, but he has now served that suspension and is back in contention for this weekend.

He also confirmed that defender Ella Morris is now back in full training with the squad after recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury in May, 2025, but reported that Sunday’s clash with the Toffees at our world-famous home ‘comes too quick’ for her.

Martin told the media in his pre-match press conference on Friday morning. “Drew [Spence] is back, Ella [Morris] is in full training but this game probably comes a little bit too quick for her, but she's training fully with the squad now. Apart from that, I think we are where we are."

Clare Hunt, Maika Hamano and Toko Koga still remain in the Women’s Asian Cup competition with their respective nations and, therefore, won’t be involved in our fixture in N17.

Maite Oroz, Jess Naz and Luana Buhler remain long-term absentees.

Supporters travelling to Merseyside for our Premier League fixture against Liverpool on Sunday should take note of the following information...

Kick-off at Anfield is 4.30pm, with gates open at 2.30pm.

Journey times from London to Liverpool will take approximately four to five hours. Those driving should note that limited parking options are available near the stadium and Anfield is located within an area where a residents’ parking scheme is in place. Supporters are therefore advised to avoid the stadium’s immediate vicinity due to strict enforcement.

Multiple pay-and-display car parks are situated within the city centre with various shuttles available if required.

Liverpool Lime Street is Liverpool’s mainline station, which is located just over two miles from Anfield. Supporters will need to travel from London Euston, with journey times taking between three and four hours on Sunday.

Entering the stadium

Away fans will be located within Blocks AL6-AL9 of the Anfield Road Stand, which can be entered via Turnstiles Q and R. Gates will open at 2.30pm.

Live Coverage: Spurs Women vs Everton Women  Tottenham Hotspur

As a club, we are committed to creating opportunities for girls and women to feel part of the game and to see a clear pathway into football, whether that’s on the pitch or behind the scenes.

On Monday 9 March, we welcomed 65 girls from six local schools to our Training Centre to celebrate International Women’s Day. The event brought together young players from across the community for a day designed to celebrate the impact of women in football while providing a fun, inclusive environment where girls could experience the game and learn more about the opportunities available to them.

Throughout the day, participants took part in a carousel of football activations inspired by our Spurs DNA and playing philosophy, before putting their skills into practice in a festival-style tournament. Every participant received a football and a match ticket, ensuring the day became a memorable first experience with the club for many of the girls involved.

The event was delivered by an all-female coaching team, supported by our Under-19 academy players, who played an important role in creating a welcoming and inspiring environment for the young participants. The day was led by Jess Gordon, who joined the club through the Powerhouse Project – an initiative designed to bring more women into roles within football clubs.

Alongside the football activities, women from across the club – including former Spurs Women’s players Jenna Schillaci and Riana Soobadoo - spent time speaking with the girls about the wide range of career opportunities within the game, from coaching and performance to marketing, media and operations, helping to highlight the many ways they could one day be part of football.

Reflecting on the day, a teacher from Lyon’s Hall Primary School said: "The event was really good – all our girls came back buzzing having had the opportunity to visit the training ground. The coaches were excellent and the Under-19 players were a real credit to the club as well, so friendly and engaging. Thanks again for inviting us and if any spaces are available for anything in the future, we'd love to come.”

We are proud to continue creating opportunities like this for young people in our local community. Girls-only programmes are now available to book for the Easter holidays, as well as evening sessions across April and May, providing even more chances for girls to get involved, develop their skills and enjoy the game.

We’re delighted to announce a three-year partnership with Pymble Ladies’ College (Pymble), a girls’ school based in Sydney, Australia.

The partnership will see Spurs Football Development coach Tegan Burling based at Pymble for six months each year, delivering coaching clinics to students and the wider community through a shared mission to support the development of girls’ football in the region.

Burling will work closely with Pymble’s Football Head Coach, Chris Wood, to incorporate methodologies and insights from the Club’s football development teams into the coaching programme at Pymble.

Dr Kate Hadwen, Principal of Pymble Ladies’ College, said: “At Pymble, we believe in actively championing women’s football and ensuring our girls and young women have access to the very best opportunities to develop and grow — not only as athletes, but as confident, capable global citizens.

“We are excited to provide the means for our girls to pursue excellence, to stretch themselves and to imagine what might be possible on the world stage.”

Danny Mitchell, Head of Global Coaching at Tottenham Hotspur, said: “Tottenham Hotspur is delighted to partner with Pymble Ladies’ College, a school that shares our deep commitment to inclusion and the development of young people. We look forward to bringing the expertise and values of our programme to Pymble’s students and to growing the game for girls both at the College and across the wider community.”

The Spurs Football Development programme works closely with both our Academy and Women’s Junior Talent Pathway to ensure a competitive environment and maximise individuals’ potential. Our programmes are designed with the aim to improve and support the individual progression of all players through the development levels and player pathways that are inspired by the club’s player development framework.

Our men’s first team will be visiting Sydney this summer for our 2026 pre-season tour, during which our football development coaches will deliver technical programmes to help young players in the region fulfil their potential, as is Club tradition.

Parents of three young girls with Down syndrome have shared how Tottenham Hotspur Foundation’s adapted football sessions are having a “huge positive impact” ahead of World Down Syndrome Day (21 March).

Lana and Zaara, both 10, and Lily, six, were recently surprised at our Training Centre with the news they would be mascots for our Women’s team’s game against Everton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on 15 March.

Their parents described how the Foundation’s sessions – on the first Sunday of every month at Tottenham Community Sports Centre, opposite the Stadium – bring the girls physical and social benefits.

Alastair Hann, dad to Lily, said: “The sessions have a huge positive impact for her dexterity, building muscle tone – low muscle tone is very common in many people with Down syndrome – and fitness. They also create opportunities to build links and relationships within the Down syndrome community. That Spurs are providing a really local option makes it far easier to access all these benefits for Lily.”

Lewis Eldridge, dad to Zaara, said: “Like other kids with Down syndrome, Zaara has a learning disability, whilst her physical development is also slower than a typical child. I’m very proud when I see her kicking a ball so well and interacting with others very naturally. It's also really important that people with disabilities are visible in the community, so football sessions like this also help in that way.”

Deebah Liaquat, mum to Lana, said: “We were super excited when we heard about these sessions as there are so little opportunities for children with Down syndrome to take part in inclusive after-school and weekend activities. Getting Lana to be more active is really difficult and to see her excited about playing football is amazing. It gives us piece of mind to bring her to sessions we know she will enjoy and that will be safe for her with peers with similar ability.”

It is estimated that around one in every 1,000 babies born in the UK has Down syndrome. The Foundation’s sessions are part of its wider development of football opportunities for local people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), with almost 28% of households in Haringey having at least one person with a long-term disability and 15.4% of the population in Enfield living with a disability.

Dominic Solanke’s remarkable scorpion kick in our 2-2 draw with Manchester City at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has been voted as the Premier League’s Adobe Express Creative Moment of the Month.

He becomes the second recipient of the award, which was created in January, 2026, to reward flashes of brilliance and celebrate moments of creativity in the Premier League.

Dom’s goal also picked up our Goal of the Month award, beating Rio Kyerematen in your vote last week.

Mason Melia joined us from League of Ireland side St Patrick's Athletic in January, 2026, after his transfer was agreed the previous year.

Having represented Newtown Juniors, St Joseph's Boys and Bray Wanderers as a youngster, the striker joined St Pats' youth ranks in the summer of 2022 before breaking through into their senior team as a 15-year-old in 2023. He set countless records during his first year in senior football - he became St Pats' youngest-ever player and goalscorer when he netted on his debut against Wexford in the Leinster Senior Cup during January of that year, before becoming the League of Ireland Premier Division's youngest scorer after scoring against UCD six months later.

In November, 2023, just days after signing his first professional contract, he became the youngest player ever to play in an FAI Cup final when he helped his side defeat Bohemians to lift the trophy. He later became the youngest player ever to be named PFAI Young Player of the Year.

In all, he made 98 senior appearances for St Pats, scoring 25 goals.

On the international stage, Mason has been a regular in the youth age groups for the Republic of Ireland, representing them at the 2023 European Under-17 Championship finals. He earned his first call-up to the Republic of Ireland Under-21s squad in October, 2024.

Jamie Donley scored his first goal for new loan club Oxford United on Wednesday night to hand them a vital 1-0 home victory against Blackburn Rovers.

The attacking midfielder converted in the 34th minute at the Kassam Stadium after Myles Peart-Harris had a header saved – and it proved to be the only goal in what was a key game for both sides near the foot of the Championship table.

The result, Oxford’s third consecutive win, saw them move level with Leicester City, who occupy the final position above the drop zone. The U’s remain below them on goal difference, though, while Blackburn are just a point above the bottom three.

Jamie’s goal was his first of the season in what was his fourth league appearance for Oxford – and sixth in all competitions – since joining them on loan in January. He’d spent the first half of the campaign at Stoke City.

He started and completed 87 minutes, with fellow Spurs loanee Will Lankshear also in the starting line-up – he was withdrawn on 73 minutes.

Will was on target on Friday, scoring Oxford’s second goal in their 3-1 win at Alfie Devine’s Preston North End – his ninth goal of the season in all competitions. Will and Jamie, previously team-mates in our Under-18s and Under-21s, also started that game together and were both substituted, with attacking midfielder Alfie completing the full 90 for the hosts.
