The VAFA congratulates Alice Wolfenden from Glen Eira/Old McKinnon Football Club who has been nominated as the Round 8 Anytime Fitness Rising Star. Alice has been impactful for the Gryphons since joining the squad this season and hits the scoreboard regularly on top of her influence around the ground.
What the Club said:
As a first year player at Glen Eira/Old McKinnon, we have learned what an outstanding young person Alice is. Not only is she a star on the field, she is hugely popular off the field and really enjoys getting involved. Whether it’s helping out in canteen or running water for one of the other teams playing at Packer Park, Alice has made a wonderful impact in her short time at the club. We look forward to Alice starring in many more games and having a great time at our social functions for years to come.
Coach, Mel Kuys said, “It’s a huge achievement for one of our own Gryphs to be recognised for a Rising Star Nomination. Her hard work and dedication has paid off. Alice has come back to footy after years away from the sport. She has natural ability and a great pair of hands and kick. She has a huge future ahead.”
