Cavanagh in contention for prestigious league award

Porthmadog striker Shaun Cavanagh has been rewarded for an outstanding September by being nominated for the Cymru North Player of the Month award.

The 25-year-old’s latest standout performance saw him score twice in a 2-1 home win over Denbigh Town in September 30.

Nominations for September 2023

Jean-Louis Akpa Akpro – Flint Town United

The experience of Akpa Akpro could prove crucial in Flint Town United’s promotion bid and he showed his worth with a series of dominant performances in September. He scored in all three of the Silkmen’s matches, including keeping his cool to net a 96th-minute penalty to earn a 1-1 draw against Holywell.

Shaun Cavanagh – Porthmadog

After failing to find the net in his first four league games back at Porthmadog, Cavanagh kickstarted his season with a prolific September – netting five goals in three matches. That tally included braces in the wins over Gresford Athletic and Denbigh Town.

Jake Roberts – Mold Alexandra

Roberts has introduced himself in style to Mold Alexandra’s fans following his summer move from Buckley Town, scoring in all three of his appearances so far. Following a brace on his debut against Chirk AAA, he also found the net in wins over Guilsfield and former club Buckley.

Matthew Worrall – Denbigh Town

After scoring 19 goals in the third tier last season, Worrall has hit the ground running in the JD Cymru North following Denbigh Town’s promotion. He contributed four goals and two assists in September, including being involved in half of his side’s goals in the chaotic 6-5 victory over Buckley Town.
