Calleigh Hedley returns to Guernsey FC following maternity leave
Summary

Guernsey FC striker Calleigh Hedley has returned to competitive play after missing half of last season due to pregnancy. The top scorer is working to regain fitness and training levels while balancing her responsibilities as a mother. Despite limited appearances last season, Hedley scored 16 goals in eight matches and remains a key offensive contributor for the team. In a recent Women's FA Cup match against Chessington & Hook United, she scored both of Guernsey FC's goals in a 3-2 loss. The team prepares for its first league match of the season against Bognor Regis Town this Sunday. Due to the travel requirements for away fixtures in the English league pyramid, Hedley's availability for the full schedule of upcoming matches remains uncertain.
