The VAFA congratulates Indiana Harrison from Ormond Amateur Football Club who has been nominated as the Round 12 Anytime Fitness Women’s Rising Star. At just 18 years old, Indiana is the captain of the Ormond Women’s team; a natural leader and talented footballer. She has scored five or more goals on three occasions this season.
What the club said:
Women’s Coach Oscar Persson said:
From day one of pre-season Indi has been a leader on and off the field, she has played a huge part in shaping what the Ormond Women’s program is today. As captain she leads from the front with her physicality and ferocity. Indi’s love of the contest is only matched by her love of kicking goals.
Ormond AFC President Jason Burt said:
Indi has played a significant role in the establishment of the Senior Women’s team at Ormond. She contributed to the ‘Women of Ormond’ strategy and remains a pivotal member of the Inclusion and Wellbeing Committee. Along with other senior Ormond women players, Indi is often the first to the Ormond junior girls training to build confidence and connection amongst the growing number of OJFC players.
To complement her work off field, Indi is a fierce competitor on field. She enjoys the challenge of playing each week and is key to the success of the senior women’s team in 2025. To be recognised as the VAFA Rising Star for Round 12 is a great reward for Indi’s commitment to Ormond, Women’s Football and her development as a player.
