Club career

Sydney FC

[edit]

Tobin signed with Sydney FC as a 15 year old in 2012, debuting in the Grand Final and winning her first A League Women’s Championship alongside the likes of Sam Kerr, Alanna Kennedy and Teresa Polias. [1]

In May 2021, it was announced that Tobin would join Perth Glory for the 2021–22 W-League season.[2] However, three months later her plans to move to Perth were put on hold, and she re-signed with Sydney FC, being appointed as captain, following Teresa Polias taking a break.[3]

Tobin led Sydney FC to a premiership in her first season as captain and retained the title the following season. In 2023, Tobin steered Sydney FC to a famous championship, scoring the second goal in a 4-0 victory over Western United at CommBank Stadium.

Tobin studied Occupational Therapy at Australian Catholic University alongside her football career.[4]
