Kilgetty AFC women score 18 goals in first game of the year
Kilgetty AFC Women scored 18 goals in their first game of the year.
The team, who played against Camrose AFC Women on Sunday, January 28, were sponsored by Saundersfoot Rotary Club, who donated a new kit for the team.
The team had been struggling with their old kit, which was uncomfortable and did not meet the needs of the growing squad.
The donation from Saundersfoot Rotary Club meant that the team could start the year in style with a new kit.
A spokesperson for Kilgetty AFC Women said: "We at Kilgetty AFC can't thank Saundersfoot Rotary enough.
"Our new kit is fantastic.
"We all feel so much more comfortable, having the correct sizes and love the new design.
"It made us set off the game on a positive note."
Five members of Saundersfoot Rotary Club presented the kit to the team on Sunday, January 26.
Roy Patel, of Saundersfoot Rotary Club, said: "We at Saundersfoot Rotary are so pleased to present this kit to Kilgetty AFC Women, but we want to go beyond this.
"We are here to support Kilgetty AFC Women as they progress, we hope to promote their efforts to help showcase women's football and encourage others to take part.
"We'd love to see participation in the women's game grow locally and beyond, and we are keen to play an active role in promoting Kilgetty AFC and women's football."
The game took place at Pembroke 3G pitch against Camrose AFC Women.
Kilgetty started strong, scoring four goals in the first 25 minutes, with Erin Griffiths opening after only three minutes.
Bryony Davies netted her first goal in 11-a-side football, quickly followed by goals from Becky Bonser and Sam Richards.
