I’d take any opportunity I could to play, including going to summer camps when I knew I’d be one of the only girls there. “Going into school, I always tried to play with the older girls whenever I could. On Friday nights we’d play against the boys and, looking back, it probably helped me progress a lot quicker. I knew I could compete with them and it made me want to pursue playing properly. “It could be intimidating. You could see some people thinking ‘what’s she doing here?’ but just as many were welcoming and, anyway, there wasn’t an alternative. “There’s obviously more that can still be done on the development side but you can see the progress that’s being made. “I did some one-on-one coaching a wee while back with an Edinburghbased group - Gold and Gray Soccer Academy - because they wanted to cater for girls and I really enjoyed it. I’m not sure coaching is for me on a wider scale, but working one-to-one with them was a really rewarding experience.” There’s a tinge of regret when Smith talks about her time at Hibs, having just failed to wrestle the league title away from allconquering Glasgow City.
