Our sponsored player Danni Wyatt helped Torquay United Women to a 2-2 tie with AFC Bournemenouth Women’s Development team in a pre-season game at Dawlish yesterday (Sunday 18 August).
Danni, who is nursing a foot injury, played the second half of the hastily arranged game, which saw Tee Kaptein and Tracey Cross score for the Devon club.
“It was a good run-out against a very strong AFC Bournemouth development team,” said club captain Danni. “We struggled to get the ball down to play in the first half, but as the game went out we managed to find some more composure and Tracey Cross scored our equaliser in the last corner of the game.
“It has been a long week for the girls with four fixtures played.
“I played second half today, and my foot is managing really well with the treatments at the moment so I’m hoping to find more minutes are we continue.”
Weltch Media first sponsored Danni in the 2017/18 campaign, when she helped Torquay to third place in the league and to the final of the Devon Cup and won the goal of the season award.
In 2022, she helped Torquay to a sensational victory in the Devon FA Cup Final and was named club player of the season.
And back in 2020, she was among our friends who featured in the popular lockdown comedy promo video With a T.
Torquay will be playing in the South West Regional Women’s Football League, at the fifth level of the English pyramid, and looking for promotion back to the FA National League.
