Our sponsored player Danni Wyatt scored twice and assisted on two more as Torquay United Women beat Selsey 6-0 yesterday (Sunday 8 October).
The victory at the Brixham ground gives the Gulls their first points in the FA National League.
Club captain Danni, who again played the full 90 minutes, said: “Wow! What a game! We completely dominated the pitch. Selsey got a straight red for a bad challenge on me – I was through on goal and got taken out, this was in the first 10 minutes.
“It meant we could push on to score the 6 goals, Tracey [Cross] x 2, me x 2 and Chloe [Kind] and Lily [Burton] – a real team effort, and it’s just the best feeling in the world to have 3 points in the National League. Up the Yellows!”
This is Torquay’s first season in the National League after finishing top of the South West Women’s League Premier Division last season to gain promotion to the FA Women’s National League Division 1 (South West) – the fourth tier of the women’s game in England.
We 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 in 2020, she was among our friends who featured in the popular comedy promo video With a T.
