Central Coast Mariners’ goalkeeper Annalee Grove has clinched the Shark Player of the Month award for March/April, following a fan voting process.
Grove emerged as a pivotal player for the Mariners during the latter part of the Ninja A-League regular season, making 16 appearances as the team narrowly missed out on a spot in the Ninja A-League Finals Series.
During the voting period, Grove featured in all four matches for the Mariners, managing to secure an impressive three clean sheets as her side finished the regular season with an unbeaten streak of four games.
Henry, another standout player, was also nominated for the Shark Player of the Month award in February, being among the top 10 rated players on FotMob’s system.
