The season is finally over and we can officially crown our Goalden Girl of 2025-26.

Kirstie Kural of Wrexham Foresters wins the latest title by a country mile, with an unofficial North Wales women’s record of 66 goals in a single season.

This beats the 65 netted by Lowri Edwards of Wrexham Ladies in 2011-12, the highest previous total we are aware of.

Kirstie’s 66 goals came in a ridiculous 18 matches – 52 in the Central Wales North League, 12 in the Welsh Cup and two in the promotion play-off final victory over Llangefni Town.

The 37-year-old bagged 14 hat-tricks, including an eight and two sixes.

Final Goalden Girl table 2025-26 season (up to and including May 31, 2026. League and Cup goals – senior football only. Recreational leagues and goals scored for junior/youth/U19 sides not included)
