Chantel Marie "Channy"^[2] Woodhead (born 17 September 1974 in Leeds, England) is a former English international football player. She played as a left back for clubs including Doncaster Belles and Everton Ladies. Woodhead won a single cap for the senior England team.

Club career

In 1994 Woodhead won the Women's FA Cup with Doncaster Belles when they defeated Knowsley United 1-0 at Glanford Park.^[3]

Woodhead played for Doncaster Belles while working in the mail order department of Leeds United.^[2] Following a spell at Everton, she signed for hometown club Leeds United Ladies in summer 2002.^[4]

International career

On 26 January 1995, Woodhead played the first half of England's 1–1 friendly draw against Italy in Florence. She was substituted off for Hope Powell at half–time.^[5] On the day of the match Woodhead had been admonished by the England management for wearing non–regulation trousers.^[6]

Woodhead was overlooked for the 1995 FIFA Women's World Cup squad by manager Ted Copeland. It was suggested to Woodhead that the dress code breach was reflective of her attitude: "So it looks like I've been dropped for wearing the wrong trousers. And what can you say to that? But it doesn't make you feel like going again, does it?"^[7]

She was allotted 105 when the FA announced their legacy numbers scheme to honour the 50th anniversary of England’s inaugural international.^[8]^[9]
