Central Coast Mariners’ goalkeeper Annalee Grove has been awarded the Shark Player of the Month for March/April following a fan vote.
Grove emerged as a pivotal player for the Mariners during the latter part of the Ninja A-League regular season, participating in 16 matches as the team narrowly missed out on a spot in the Ninja A-League Finals Series.
In the four matches that fell within the voting period, Grove managed to keep an impressive three clean sheets, contributing significantly to her team’s unbeaten streak of four matches by the end of the regular season.
Henry was in contention for the Shark Player of the Month award in February, recognised as one of the top 10 rated players according to FotMob’s rating system.
