August 2023 Goal of the Month winner revealed

The first ArmourCo Berkshire Goal of the Month winner for 2023/24 has been revealed following a public vote and debate among the Football in Berkshire judging panel.

The winner for August is Reading YMCA’s Joel Burton following up a less than successful free kick with a strike into the top left hand corner.

He more than made up for not clearing the wall that’s for sure!

Football in Berkshire’s Goal of the Month competition is supported by Armour Co who will provide a pack of three GripSocks to the player scoring the winning goal. So well done Joel!

Time to start nominating goals for September 2023
