Eastlake Women’s Football Program is under the spotlight for all the right reasons.
VFL Clubs, SANFAL Clubs and AFLW have now signed Eastlake players for the 2019 season. Jessie Williams started the ball rolling when she signed with North Melbourne in the AFLW, then Najwa Allen signed with Norwood Football Club for the 2019 SANFL State-wide Super Women’s League Season, Libby Hosking is training with Essendon and breaking news that Kasie Nugent has signed with VFL club Williams Town.
All four players have been fantastic for the program and will inspire local players to reach for the stars. Najwa has been one of the best players in the local area for the last few years and was only a matter of time before she was picked up to play at a higher level. Libby has great speed and foot skills. Kasie (the Difference) Nugent has had a roller-coaster ride over the last few years with a knee injury that cut 2017 short and after 14 months of rehabilitation, she was able to return to playing. Kasie on-field form turned heads and was offered a contract to play in the VFL.
Eastlake Football Club wishes all the women’s players all the best at their new clubs.
