SWPL: Celtic’s Natasha Flint claims March player of month prize | Football News


Celtic forward Natasha Flint and St Johnstone midfielder Ellie-May Cowie have won the SWPL and SWPL 2 player of the month awards for March.

Flint, who returned to the Hoops on loan from Liverpool in January, scored four goals last month as they won all their matches including against title rivals Rangers and Glasgow City.

She saw off Motherwell’s Louisa Boyes, Mia McAulay of Rangers and Montrose’s Jade McLaren for the prize.

Meanwhile, Ellie-May Cowie has been awarded the SWPL 2 prize after helping her side to 10 points from a possible 15 last month.
