Before joining Cirencester, Carla played for Swindon Town Women FC, who have also paid tribute.
The club said: “It’s with great sadness that the club has learned the tragic news that our former goalkeeper Carla Heaton has passed away at the tender age of just 22.
“Carla brought a shining light to the dressing room with her personality, and her performances between the sticks were second to none.
“She will be greatly missed by the players in our current squad who were honoured to have known her and shared the pitch with her.
“Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends at this difficult time. Rest in peace, Goalie.”
Former Swindon coach Dan Jones said: “Devastated doesn’t express the half of it.
“Had the pleasure of working with Carla in my short time at the club, she was keen, eager to learn, to improve and a hugely lovable character. Thoughts with all her friends and family at this time.”
Other football clubs have also paid their respects with Exeter City Women FC saying: “Sending our condolences to you all as well Carla’s family and friends.”
