Since the first recognised match in November 1972, there have been 39 hat-tricks scored, by 23 footballers, for the England women's national football team. The first player to score a hat-trick in a recognised match was Pat Firth, who did so days after turning sixteen on 23 June 1973, to remain England's youngest hat-trick scorer. The first players to score a hat-trick after the Football Association formally incorporated women's football were Marieanne Spacey and Karen Walker, who both achieved the feat in England's 10âÂÂ0 victory on 25 September 1993.
No England players have scored a hat-trick on their only international appearance, but two players have scored for England only through claimed hat-tricks: Danielle Carter, with two hat-tricks in consecutive appearances, and Gemma Davison, though the third of her goals was officially recorded as an own goal for the opposing team. England have never lost a match in which they have scored a hat-trick.
Results that have been claimed or reported as hat-tricks, but which official match reports do not list as hat-tricks.
England has conceded seven hat-tricks; six of the games ended in losses, while the other was a 3âÂÂ3 draw.
Ellen White has scored two hat-tricks; at the time of scoring her first, she became England women's oldest hat-trick goalscorer, and has only been overtaken in this regard by herself.
