Proven young goal-getter joins thriving Llangefni Town women’s squad

Another talented youngster with a definite eye for goal has been added to Llangefni Town’s squad ahead of the 2025-26 North Wales Coast Women’s League season.

Elin Roberts, 18, joins Cefni after a very impressive spell as top-scorer with The New Saints Under-19 side last season.

The teenager has spent most of her football days at Caernarfon Town and will now be reunited with former Canaries team-mates Jess Jones and Amber Brown at Llangefni.

Last season Elin scored eight goals in seven appearances for TNS U-19s, including five in one game – a 9-0 victory over Newtown U19s.

Back in 2021-22 she was part of the celebrated Caernarfon Town side which reached the FAW Under-16 Welsh Cup semi-finals alongside captain Jess Jones, Amber Brown, plus other well-known North Wales emerging stars such as Jini Owen Hughes, Yasmin Wilcox and Sara Baines.

That season saw Elin notch up 21 goals.

She netted 19 goals in as many games for the same team in 2022-23, also making four appearances for Caernarfon Town Under-19s in Genero Adran North.

In 2023-24, Elin broke into the Caernarfon Town senior ladies side and also bagged a few goals for the Under-17s.

Then came last season’s experience with The New Saints which only boosted the young talent’s profile.

Elin joins Llangefni summer additions, playmaker Cerys Gadd, goalkeeper Mia Gleave, defenders Cara Aston and Carys Lock, plus attacking players Lowri Thomas and Jordan Roberts in Dan Gregg’s flourishing squad.
