  • 150 people have officially served as captains of the England national football teams. The current captains are Harry Kane (men's) and Leah Williamson (women's). The first England captain was Cuthbert Ottaway; he captained England in the first ever international match, against Scotland on 30 November 1872. He went on to captain England on just one further occasion, the third international match, on 7 March 1874, against the same opposition. Alexander Morten captained England in their first international on home soil, 8 March 1873, also against Scotland, and was the first international captain to win a match. Having previously played for Scotland against England, this was his only international appearance for England. Morten remains England's oldest captain. The England women's team was authorised in 1972 by the Women's Football Association (WFA), originally unaffiliated with the Football Association (FA), with Sheila Parker as its first captain. The women's first international match was played against Scotland on 18 November 1972, in anticipation of the centenary of the equivalent men's match. Parker remained in her role for four years before being left out of the 1976 British Home Championship; her replacement, Carol Thomas (née McCune), was only 20 with five prior caps when she took the armband, and retained it for nearly a decade. Women's players between 1972 and 1993 were not all officially recognised until 2022; there were also several prior to 1972, who were not sanctioned and are not recognised. Thomas is England's youngest official captain under the WFA; Keira Walsh is England's youngest official captain under the FA; Carol Wilson and Casey Stoney unofficially served as captains when younger than Thomas and Walsh. Billy Wright set the record for most captaincies of his country in 1959, with 90. Bobby Moore, who remains England's youngest men's captain and the only England captain to have lifted the World Cup, reached 90 captaincies in 1973, sharing the record with Wright. Steph Houghton has the record for captaincies of the women's team, and outright second-most caps as captain behind Wright and Moore, with 72. Seven male players were captain in their only international cap, the last of these being in 1925. Several women's matches have seen two players start as co-captains. The most players known to wear the captain's armband for England in one match is four, which has happened twice. On 3 June 2003, Michael Owen started as captain before Emile Heskey took over at half time, Phil Neville replaced him in the sixty-first minute, and Jamie Carragher was handed the armband in the eighty-seventh. On 30 November 2021, Millie Bright started as captain before Ellen White took over at half time, Keira Walsh replaced her in the sixtieth minute, and Alex Greenwood took the armband in the seventy-first.

  • Pierwszym kapitanem reprezentującym Anglie był Cuthbert Ottaway; kapitan reprezentował Anglię w pierwszym w historii meczu międzynarodowym przeciwko Szkocja 30 listopada 1872 roku. W kolejnym meczu, trzecim marcowym meczu z 7 marca 1874, wyruszył na pojedynek z tą samą opozycją. Alexander Morten poprowadził Anglię w pierwszym meczu międzynarodowym na ojczystej ziemi, 8 marca 1873 przeciwko Szkocji, i był pierwszym kapitanem międzynarodowym, który wygrał mecz. To był jego jedyny międzynarodowy występ. Od tego czasu Billy Wright ustanowił rekord dla większości kapitanów w swoim kraju, z 90. Bobby Moore, który pozostaje jedynym kapitanem Anglii, który podniósł Puchar Świata, osiągnął 90 kapitanów w 1973 roku i dzieli się rekordem z Wright. (pl)
