Frankie Beckles (born 11 March 2007) is a British Virgin Islands footballer who currently plays for Shrewsbury Town and the British Virgin Islands national team.




Club career


Beckles began playing youth football with Everett Rovers. At age fourteen, he was spotted by a Luton Town scout and joined the club's academy. After two years with the club, he was not offered a further scholarship and found himself back in local amateur football. While with the Onside Academy, a London-based team for unsigned youth players, he was noticed by scouts of League One side Shrewsbury Town and signed to a deal. As a youth, he regularly warms up alongside first-team keepers Marko Marosi and Harry Burgoyne.




International career


Born in Watford, Beckles qualifies to represent the British Virgin Islands through his paternal grandfather. He earned his first senior call-up to the British Virgin Islands national team in March 2024 for a pair of 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification matches against the U.S. Virgin Islands. He went on to debut on 22 March 2024, earning a 1–1 draw in the first match. He kept a clean sheet after regulation and forced a penalty shoot-out in the second leg, saving two penalty kicks for the eventual victory. Beckles played every minute of both matches. The victory marked the first-ever win for the British Virgin Islands in FIFA World Cup qualification and the first time advancing to the Group Stage.
