Bristol Rovers prospect Jed Ward has shown himself to be the "ultimate professional" and a "very good up-and-coming goalkeeper" while out on loan, according to Hungerford Town boss Danny Robinson.
The Crusaders manager has had the 19-year-old in his squad for the majority of the season, with Ward performing well between the posts as they try to avoid relegation from the National League South.
Hungerford occupy the final relegation place with eight games to play, sitting four points from safety with a game in hand, but they have the best defensive record of all their immediate rivals and Ward has certainly played his part in an improved run of form in 2023.
