Cara Henderson joined PTW ahead of the 22/23 season in what was hailed as a massive coup for Brian Graham’s side. Following her time with Glasgow Women, in which she helped them gain promotion to the SWPL1 winning their coaches’ and players’ player of the season awards,
Henderson made Petershill Park her home. Henderson was immediately adored by Thistle fans, who created an iconic chant to the tune of Magic by Pilot to honour the young forward, as she contributed massively to our historic first top 6 finish, scoring the goal which secured our spot in a 1-0 win away to Dundee United.
She would later go on to become the club’s top scorer for the 22/23 campaign and picked up our signing of the season award as well as Young Player of the Year
Becoming the first player to sign on for the 23/24 season, Henderson gained the iconic number 9 jersey and, like our gaffer for the men’s team, has been in red hot form as she finished our top scorer for a second season running.
Having had plenty of interest in the summer, Hendo opted to remain in Red and Yellow for another campaign as she has shown how key of an asset she is to the Thistle front line, scoring key goals in wins over Dundee United and Spartans so far this season.
