Genero Adran North leaders Connah’s Quay Nomads have completed the signing of Kinmel Bay forward Lexi Walsh. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 17-year-old has been a standout for Kinmel Bay since stepping up to senior football, scoring 47 goals in all competitions since making the jump last season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walsh has impressed at every age group she’s played at, most notably scoring six goals in the 2024 Bute Energy U16’s Cup Semi-Finals against Talycopa AFC, in a 7-2 win at Park Avenue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two goals on her senior debut in February 2025 in the North East Wales League Cup against CPD Pwllheli was followed by a hattrick on her league debut against Caernarfon Town two weeks later, as Walsh made an immediate impact in the senior football scene. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
