Brogan Yvonne Hay (born 1 March 1999) is a Scottish footballer who plays for Rangers in the Scottish Women's Premier League (SWPL) as a right winger or forward.[2]

Club career[edit]

After attending coaching sessions with the charity diversionary initiative 'Moving The Goalposts' as a child,[3] Hay began playing at youth level for Glasgow City at the age of 11.[4] She made her first team debut against Rangers on 28 June 2015, when she was 15.[5] In March 2016, she scored her first senior team goal in the Scottish Women's League Cup against Inverness City.[6]

In October 2017, Hay left Glasgow City[7] and moved to fellow SWPL club Rangers, reuniting with former City youth coach Amy McDonald, who had since become manager of the Gers side.[8] Having recovered from a serious ankle injury to be voted the league's Player of the Month for August/September 2019,[9] she agreed an 18-month professional contract extension with Rangers in December 2019.[10][11] She was named SWPL Player of the Month for a second time in April 2021,[12] and agreed a further contract extension in April 2022.[13]

International career[edit]

Hay has represented Scotland at the under-15[14] and under-17 levels.[15] In September 2015 she scored two goals, within three minutes, against the Republic of Ireland at Ainslie Park; Scotland won the game 3–0.[16][17]

In 2017 she was part of the Scotland under-19 squad which qualified for the 2017 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship,[18] and made one appearance at the finals tournament as a late substitute in a 1–0 loss to Spain.[19]

Hay was called up to the senior squad for the first time in November 2022.[20]

Personal life[edit]

Hay was raised in the Fernhill neighbourhood of Rutherglen,[3][15] and attended Trinity High School in the town.[14][15]

Her older sister Kodie is also a footballer and a forward who began her career at Glasgow City;[15][21] both siblings left the club at the same time for more playing opportunities,[7] with Kodie moving to Hamilton Academical[22] and later to Celtic,[23] Motherwell[24] and Partick Thistle. During the 2019 season they played against one another in the Old Firm derby,[23][25][26] and subsequently were on opposite sides in a 2023 Scottish Cup semi-final[27] and the 2024 Scottish Women's Premier League Cup final.

Their uncle is former professional footballer Stephen McKeown.[14]
