SA Little Legend Hayden Hill, 10, plays for Happy Valley Vikings Football Club U12 side. We are told this season he has found confidence in himself, working hard at training. ‘In particular, his run and carry of the ball ... after working extremely hard at training and away from the club, he is now been able to run at full pace and bounce the footy with confidence. (In a recent game) he took a clean disposal off the ball from a ruck tap, he took the play on and passed an opposition player with momentum. The player gave chase but Hayden stayed composed, put the jets on, had a bounce and continued to run kicking into our forward 50. A huge effort and a great example of what hard work can do,’ his proud nominator says. Hayden is described as ‘a talented footballer and a quiet achiever’. It’s hoped Hayden will ontinue to believe what he is capable, help him take his football to the next level. Picture: Supplied
