Round 8 Anytime Fitness Men’s Rising Star: Griffin Box

By VAFA Media · June 6, 2025
Round 8 Anytime Fitness Men’s Rising Star: Griffin Box

The VAFA congratulates Griffin Box from Aquinas OC Football Club who has been nominated as the Round 8 Anytime Fitness Men’s Rising Star. Griffin has polled coaches votes in 5 out of 8 games for the season and has showed composure beyond his years with the ball in hand to step up when his side needs it most: booting a crucial fourth quarter goal in Aquinas’ win over Canterbury.

What the club said:

Griffin is a spritely 16 year old playing his first year of senior footy, having come through the Vermont Juniors. Griff joined us this year as he wanted to play with his two cousins Toby and Sam. His Dad Justin also played at Aquinas.

He has certainly surprised us. Griffin is a lovely kid that has fitted in well, and the older boys love him.
