Fara Williams (born January 25, 1984) is an English football player. She is a goal-scoring central midfielder for England Women and Everton Ladies.

Fara played in all three of England's group games at Women's Euro 2005, scoring a penalty in the 2-1 defeat to Denmark. She also scored give goals in helping England qualify for the World Cup in China, including two in the 13-0 win over Hungary.

She went on to play in all 3 of England's group games at the World Cup, and scored a penalty in England's 6-1 win over Argentina. However, she also picked up her second yellow card of the group stage in that match, and so missed the quarterfinal defeat by the United States through suspension. This should not have been a yellow card it should have been a free kick for England instead, but the Argentina players conned the ref!On May 23, Fara picked up the 2007 International Player of the Year Award. In May 08 England played Belarus in the European Championships and Fara scored a hat trick. A week later Fara scored an amazing goal for her club [Everton] , an effortless strike from just beyond the half way line. Then a week later [in the Liverpool cup at Goodison Park] Fara scored 4 goals. Her Everton Fans have now given her the nickname "Queen Fara"!
