Gemma is Richmond's women's-team striker in Ted Lasso season 4. She is played by Abbie Hern and is one of the new football characters introduced in the season.
A striker is an attacking player whose main responsibility is to create and finish scoring opportunities. Gemma's role therefore differs from the defensive positions held by Lizzie, Niamh, and Siobhan.
The team also includes Boots, the goalkeeper, while Alice Chilton serves as Ted's assistant coach. These roles help define the composition of the women's squad as Ted returns to Richmond.
Abbie Hern was announced among the seven new season 4 performers. The season expands the show's football world by giving the women's team a roster of named players with identifiable positions rather than treating the squad as a background group.
