Layla Proctor made the move to the South West in June 2025 from Lewes FC, where she was a key player for the East Sussex team. 

Born in England, but growing up in Australia, Layla moved to Germany at just 16 years of age after being scouted by SV Elversberg. 

Proctor then joined the Manchester United Academy in 2020, playing through the age groups, before agreeing a dual-signee move with Huddersfield Town. 

After her time with the Terriers, she switched to the south coast and joined tier-three side Lewes, featuring 23 times and scoring one goal in league play.
