Natasha Rasmussen is up for a Berkshire Football Award in the category of Young Player of the Season (Female).
Rasmussen is Reading FC Women u23 captain but has also been dual registered with Maidenhead United this season.
One nomination for the award said: “Tash has been a phenomenal part of the Maidenhead United squad this season. Whilst dual signed for Reading U23s she has made an incredible impression on the team. Her talents in centre midfield are a tremendous asset to the team and for a player so young, still has so much potential. Tash regularly hits one of the top GPS distances in games, which demonstrates the hard work she puts in as a box-to-box midfielder. She has a really impressive attitude, always asking questions and wanting to grow herself as a player.
“Her attitude at training is always spot on, giving her absolute maximum effort whilst encouraging those around her, despite being one of the youngest players in the squad. One particular highlight for Tash this season was lifting the Berks and Bucks County Cup as Captain of Reading U23s where she lead the team very well. Tash performs consistently well week in, week out, which is why I feel she is worthy of this award.”
Another added: “When first joining Maidenhead, Tash burst onto the scene, in only her second game for the club she managed three assists and played a pivotal role in the team’s success. As the season has progressed she has shone even more, her work rate both on and off the ball has been outstanding and one at which coach Ed Jackson-Norris has praised immensely.”
