Sam Kerr and Charlotte Gammie have collected the April
2022-23 Park’s Motor Group Scottish Women’s Premier
League (SWPL) Player of the Month awards.
Kerr is the fourth Rangers player to win the award this
season alongside Jenny Dannielson (August), Tessel Middag
(September), and Brogan Hay (March). This is her first Player
of the Month award having being nominated back in October
2020 whilst playing for Glasgow City.
The Scotland internationalist had a prolific month as
Rangers went unbeaten, winning three out of their four
matches. Kerr scored five goals, including a hat-trick against
Partick Thistle and the only goal in their 1-1 draw against
Heart of Midlothian.
In Park’s Motor Group SWPL 2, Charlotte Gammie picked
up the award after helping her side secure the title with four
games to spare. Montrose won all four games in the month to
extend their unbeaten run to 14 games.
Gammie scored three goals and provided three assists,
contributing with a goal scoring action in each of the four
games. This included a stunning strike in their 3-1 win over
Kilmarnock.
Montrose will be officially presented with the Park’s
Motor Group SWPL 2 title on Sunday (14th May) after their
match against Queen’s Park which is a 12pm kick off at Links
Park.
The nominees for the April Park’s Motor Group SWPL
award were Jacynta Galabadaarachchi (Celtic), Bayley
Hutchison (Aberdeen), and Alana Marshall (Spartans) and for the SWPL 2 award the nominees were
Ami Robertson (Gartcairn) and Eleanor Smith (Queen’s Park).
