Woodley United captain Ellen Surtees has picked up a Berkshire Football Awards nomination in the Eddie Stobart Goal of the Season category.
Surtees’s goal came in the Southern Region Women’s Football League tie against Oxford City in March from a free-kick some way out.
The nomination notes received said: “In a team that has found goals hard to come by, for a defender who has spent most of the season trying to prevent goals, to score a goal of this quality from this distance takes a lot of skill and talent under such pressure.”
Surtees recently passed the 150 appearances mark for the Kestrels. Watch her goal in the tweet below:
