Women's Team skipper Justine Robinson has rounded off another superb season by scooping the Club's Super 6 Goal of the Month award for April.
Robinson’s spectacular long-range strike during Pools Women’s 7-1 destruction of Wallsend at The Super 6 Stadium won by a landslide when we opened up last month’s shortlist to a fans vote.
The attacking midfielder scored four in the stunning victory but her third goal of the day was the one that stole the headlines – a dazzling thirty-yard drive in to the top left corner of the net.
Robinson’s award is the icing on the cake for the Hartlepool-born star who was Pools’ top scorer this term and was also second in the overall NERWFL Premier Division scoring charts.
The 28-year-old was at The Super 6 Stadium on Thursday afternoon to be presented with the Super 6 Goal of the Month trophy by First Team boss Craig Hignett.
“As soon as I got the ball I knew what I wanted to do,” explained Robinson, who is the first female to win Pools' Goal of the Month prize.
“Some of the other players were shouting at me to just keep the ball moving but I knew it was in as soon as it left my foot, it was just one of those.
“Hopefully I can score a few more like that next season too.”
Pools Women’s Team finished as runners-up in the Premier Division during 2018/19 and will now hope to mount a bid for promotion to the National League next term.
