Goalden Girl: Polly treble keeps her among leaders
Connah’s Quay Nomads captain Polly Wild-McGregor moved up to fourth in the Goalden Girl chart at the weekend after another hat-trick put her on 18 goals from 12 games.
The 18-year-old’s third treble of the campaign helped guide the Genero Adran North leaders to a 4-0 win over CPDM Bangor.
Great to see a CPD Llanystumdwy player enter the chart this week. Captain Tash Matthews reached six goals on Sunday with a double in her team’s 2-2 draw against Pwllheli.
Llandudno’s Kelsey Davies edged up to a dozen goals and Becky Jarvis-Evans is in double figures after both made the scoresheet in a 6-0 victory at NFA.
