The VAFA congratulates Bailey Ayce Payze, who has received the Anytime Fitness Rising Star nomination for Round 4. Payze tasted senior football with Old Peninsula in 2022 and has been a regular starter in the senior side over the first month of the season.
What the club said:
Bailey Payze has been a familiar face around the OPFC since he was born. He has been a Pirate long before many of his current team mates. The Blue and Tan runs deep thru young Bailey.
Bailey is a worthy nominee. He impacts on the football field and off the field around his club in many areas.
He fits all categories of a worthy nominee. He is tenacious, hardworking, learns fast and can play key roles inside the contest and outside. His forward craft is a valuable tool and allows him to play taller than his stature. He is a pleasure to coach and a great young man to be around on and off the field.
