The FA WSL Spring Series (2017 season) was Everton Ladies Football Club's third season competing in the FA Women's Super League. [1]

Contents

Due to the reorganisation of top-level women's football in England, the 2017 season only covered half of a traditional season's length, while the FA WSL shifted its calendar to match the traditional autumn-to-spring axis of football in Europe. [2] For the same reason, there is no Champions League qualification nor relegation for which to be competed.

First Team

As of 28 January 2018. [3]

Note: Flags indicate national team as defined under FIFA eligibility rules. Players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality.
