Aine signed for the Rovers Belles from Peamount United LFC in October 2010.

The 21-year-old Republic of Ireland international striker came to Doncaster off the back of a spectacular treble winning season with her club in Ireland. After winning the league and League Cup, Peamount sealed the FAI Cup thanks to a hat-trick from O'Gorman who also set the other up in a 4-2 win. Aine was one of three nominations for Senior Women’s International Player of the Year last year at the FAI International Football awards.

Aine established herself as a member of the senior international squad as a 16-year old and has featured in three qualifying campaigns since, gaining 38 caps. She built up a good reputation in the game through her displays for Stella Maris and the Irish youth sides at both U17 and U19 levels. Aine was a mainstay of the Stella Maris side, which won National Cups in the U16 and U18 age brackets.

Aine has been a prolific scorer in Ireland and will be looking for that to continue in the new FA Women’s Super League.
