Sienna’s performances for Manly United in 2023 attracted the attention of the Junior Matildas setup and in September of that year, she played a starring role as Australia qualified for the 2024 Under-17 Women’s Asian Cup.
Not content with a match-winning double when Australia beat Vietnam 2-1, Dale scored all four goals as Australia defeated Bangladesh 4-0.
“I’m incredibly excited to be joining Canberra United for the new season,” said Dale.
“It’s been my dream to play professionally and I’m incredibly grateful to Ant and the rest of the coaching staff for giving me this opportunity.
“I can’t wait to get down to Canberra and start training with the team, and learn as much as I can off of everyone.”
