Today saw junior presentations being held at Harpers Field as our junior teams celebrated their seasons that were. The highlight of junior presentation day is crowning our Junior Player of the Year who is awarded the Jerry Griffiths Trophy.![]()
![]()
The 2024 recipient of the Jerry Griffiths Trophy is Amalia Mussolino from our U14 Girls team. Amalia joins a list of previous winners including Molly Brooksby (AFLW Port Adelaide), Corey Durdin (Carlton) and Troy Menzel (Carlton and Adelaide).![]()
![]()
Congratulations Amalia, and to all of the amazing players who were nominated for the award, you all exhibit the qualities Jerry believed made good footballers, and good people.![]()
![]()
The nomination from her coach, Scott Connolly:![]()
I am writing to nominate Amalia Musolino for the Jerry Griffiths Award. Amalia exemplifies the qualities of a true leader and is an outstanding candidate for this recognition.![]()
![]()
Amalia has been captain of her team for the past 2 years, during which she has consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership skills. Her caring nature is evident in the way she supports and motivates her teammates, both on and off the field. Amalia takes the time to listen to her peers, offering guidance and encouragement whenever it is needed. The U14 girls Monday night “reflection huddle” was implemented by Amalia off her own bat and has become an important part of our teams routine.![]()
Responsibility is another hallmark of Amalia's leadership. She leads by example, showing up early for training and balancing her academic responsibilities with her athletic commitments. Amalia is consistently an A grade student.![]()
![]()
In addition to being caring and responsible, Amalia is deeply respectful. She treats everyone with kindness and fairness, earning the admiration and trust of her team mates and coaches alike. Amalia has never failed to thank the coaches for their time at the end of every training session. Her respectful demeanor extends beyond the team, as she interacts positively with opponents, umpires and supporters, embodying the true spirit of sportsmanship. ![]()
![]()
Amalia’s positive attitude, resilience in the face of challenges, and unwavering commitment to her team make her a role model for others. She inspires those around her to strive for excellence and to always give their best effort. Amalia narrowly missed out on a spot in the girls State team for her age group. A disappointment she took with exceptional grace.![]()
![]()
In summary, Amalia's caring nature, sense of responsibility, respectful attitude, and the high regard in which she is held by her peers make her a great leader. It is with great enthusiasm that I nominate Amalia for the Jerry Griffiths award, confident that she will continue to inspire and lead with integrity and passion.
