Ella Heads

Ella Heads (born 24 June 2003) is an Australian rules footballer playing for Port Adelaide Football Club in the AFL Women's (AFLW).

Heads is a Sydney local who was signed by the Swans ahead of their inaugural season in 2022 having previously played for the Inner West Magpies—where she won the club's under-18 best and fairest in 2020—and the Swans academy. A forward as a junior, Heads is a rebounding defender with a long kick and a strong intercept mark.

She again played every game in 2023 as the club reached its maiden AFLW finals series. This made her one of only three players to play all 22 games in Sydney's first two seasons. Her improvement throughout the season was marked by a rising star nomination in round 5 for her 18 disposals and 10 marks against Carlton. She was then named in the AFL Players Association's 22under22 team at the conclusion of the season.

During the 2024 Trade Period, Heads was traded to as a part of a 4-team trade between Port Adelaide, , and that also saw Essendon defender Ash Van Loon get traded to the Swans.
