As well as reaching a landmark 50 goals for her club on Sunday, Llangefni Town teenager Jess Jones also scored her highest total in a single game for the Anglesey team – 5.

The 18-year-old’s quintet against Trearddur Bay took her to the half-century of goals in all competitions in just 33 appearances.

Phenomenal stuff from the former Caernarfon Town junior, who is almost certain to finish North Wales senior top goalscorer in women’s football for 2023-24.

Here is a breakdown of her 50 goals for Llangefni Town.
