Treaty United's Madison McGuane named Premier Division Player of the Month
Teenage star Madison McGuane has been named as the SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division Player of the Month for the month of May.
The Ireland Girls' Under-16s captain becomes the first Treaty United player to win this award after being selected ahead of Shelbourne's Mackenzie Anthony and Wexford's Ellen Molloy.
McGuane scored twice in the side's three games last month, both from the penalty spot, including a clinching goal in their win over Galway United, which moved the Limerick club back into the play-off race.
The dynamic youngster has impressed with her performances in what is the Limerick native's debut season at senior level.
Treaty United manager Sean Russell praised the midfielder by saying, "Madison has been excellent since the start of the season. She's shown that she is more than capable of making the step up to senior level.
"For such a young player, she plays with great maturity. Her attitude matches her ability and I have no doubt she will continue to develop and get better."
It has been a great month for McGuane as she captained the Republic of Ireland girls U16s in the UEFA Development Tournament in Finland and picked up the women's U17 Player of the Year at the FAI International Awards.
McGuane follows Emma Doherty of Galway United and Kelly Brady of Athlone Town as this year's SSE Airtricity Women's Premier Division Player of the Month winners.
