Lisburn Rangers forward Gracie Conway is the Sports Direct Women's Premiership Player of the Month for April/May.

Conway has made a superb start to the season with the newly promoted side, scoring six goals in five matches during April and May.

A delighted Conway said: "I'm very grateful to receive this award, the season has started well for us and I'm really happy with the opportunity to play in the Premiership.

"It is a big step up playing at this level. The tempo is a lot faster and I've had to adapt to it but my teammates have really helped me make those adjustments to my game."

The teenager scored fours goals and provided two assists on Lisburn Rangers' route to the VBet Women's League Cup final.

The Lisburn club face Cliftonville at Blanchflower Park in the final on Sunday June 30.

Ahead of the final Conway said: "Everyone has worked so hard to get us there and I've been pleased to help my team with some goals along the way, but without my teammates I'd not get those chances.

"It's going to be a tough game but if we can focus on our performance we believe we will do okay."
