Corinne Louise Yorston (born 15 June 1983) is an English female international footballer who plays as a defender. She most recently played her club football for Yeovil Town. Although primarily a left-back, she has played in midfield at club level and has won most of her England caps playing in central defence. She has also previously represented English Universities.
Yorston began her career with Southampton Saints. She was inspired by Southampton coach Sue Lopez. In the 2003 close season, Yorston joined Fulham Ladies with whom she made her England debut in 2003. Soon after this she suffered a couple of stress fractures that kept her out of the game for nearly a year.
She joined Bristol Academy in the 2005 close season, and went on to have three seasons as club captain. She joined Arsenal Ladies in July 2009, but returned to Bristol in 2010. She was loaned out to Keynsham Town to maintain fitness ahead of Bristol's FA WSL season, which began in April 2011.
At the end of the 2014 season, Yorston left Bristol Academy to join FA WSL 2 side Yeovil Town.
Yorston won 19 caps at Under-19 level and also played at Under-23 level before joining the England senior team. She made her debut, as a substitute, in the game against Germany in September 2003 and played, again as a substitute, in the game against Denmark in February 2004. Her next game for England was not until March 2007 when she was a substitute for Rachel Unitt in the game against Scotland.
