Helen Jane Lander (born 26 April 1986) is an English-born Welsh female international football striker. She currently plays her club football for Chelsea Ladies and has represented Wales at senior level.
Lander began her career with Watford Ladies, joining at the age of nine and progressing to become captain of the senior side. She left to join Arsenal Ladies in January 2009, scoring on her debut later that month as Arsenal beat Colchester United in the FA Women's Cup.[4]
Lander moved to Chelsea Ladies in September 2010.[5]
Lander represented England at Under-23 level, but, due to her mother's father being Welsh,[3] she made her senior debut for Wales against Luxembourg in 2008.
In August 2010 Lander scored six goals in Wales' 15-0 win over Azerbaijan. She was listed as a Chelsea player.[6]
