She plays alongside her twin sister Michaela who has also had a stellar year.

What the club said:

Ormond Senior Women’s coach Oscar Persson said, “Isabella ‘Bruz’ Di Lecce is first and foremost a great person. As part of our leadership group she has found a balance between driving standards and ensuring a supportive environment for her teammates. She has taken huge strides this year in her personal development as a player, greatly improving her kicking and forward craft. Her last month of football is a credit to her drive to be the best version of herself.”
