Crystal Palace Women and head coach Laura Kaminski have won the League Managers Association's Utilita Performance of the Week award following their record-breaking 9-1 win over Durham Women last weekend.
The League Managers Association’s panel, comprising Howard Wilkinson, Sir Alex Ferguson, Chris Hughton, Rachel Yankey, Les Ferdinand, Clare Tomlinson, Dave Bassett, and Barry Fry, determined that the award should go to the Eagles.
A hat-trick for Annabel Blanchard, four goals for Elise Hughes and further efforts from Hayley Nolan and Molly Sharpe saw Palace Women record their biggest-ever victory.
The Utilita Performance of the Week award – last won by Sunderland’s men’s team for their 5-0 win over Southampton – was presented to Palace head coach Kaminski on Friday, with her side sitting top of the Women’s Championship table after three matches.
The Eagles now travel to Sunderland Women on Sunday (17th September) afternoon, seeking to maintain their unbeaten start to the campaign.
Everyone at the club would like to congratulate Laura and her players on this fantastic achievement.
Earlier this week, tickets went on sale for Crystal Palace Women’s next three home games of the season. Find out more here.
