CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR: WEEK 18

By VAFA · August 29, 2014
CLUB WAREHOUSE RISING STAR: WEEK 18

Congratulations Nathan Smith of Hampton Rovers – this week’s Club Warehouse Rising star. 
Nathan Smith of Hampton Rovers is this week’s Club Warehouse Rising Star. Nathan returned from injury during the second half of this season and cemented his spot in the senior side. 
After 14 games and 9 goals over 2 years for Sandringham Dragons in the TAC Cup, Nathan retuned to Hampton Rovers where he began in 2009. Nathan’s commitment cannot be questioned, after being out injured early this year, Nathan attended matches to support his teammates. 
Nathan was best on ground in round 18 after only 5 games in the senior side. Nathan’s pace and elusiveness has seen him kick more goals than games played this year. 
Nathan’s reliable boot has caused nightmares for opposition, consistently kicking at exceptionally high efficiency.
