Welcome Sarah!

Former netballer who came through the AFL talent search program into the AFL Victoria female academy. Making her mark as a hard-as-nails inside midfielder.

Jess and Sarah Hosking

Sarah Hosking exploded onto the women’s football scene after being introduced to AFL through a talent search in March this year.

Hailing from an elite netball background, Hosking has developed into one of the most promising midfielders in the competition in just six months.

Senior women’s coach Damien Keeping says she will add depth to the Blues midfield.

“Sarah’s ability to impact within, as well as on the outside of the contest, will make her a critical weapon in our search for midfield dominance in 2017,” Keeping said.

Welcome, Sarah!

Age: 20
Position: Midfielder
Club: Seaford

Hosking in the fast lane

“I don’t want to sound cliché saying it but it was a dream come true being selected for Carlton,” Sarah said.

“I was so excited, and to be with Jess as well, we are both so stoked to be at the same club.

“I think if we were at different clubs, at some stage we would of tried to get to the same club and figure out a way to make that happen. Being able to be together from the start is awesome.”

Already an elite athlete, hoping the skill and awareness translate too.

Looking forward to seeing Sarah run around tonight

She was bloody hard at it. Lined them up at the opening bounce.

She was bloody hard at it. Lined them up at the opening bounce.

Yep impressive went in hard every chance she got.

Players like that really can set the tone for the team .

If she plays like that regularly she will quickly become someone to respect by opposition.

 

[Jabba73]

Anyone getting between her and where she wants to be, is going to get hurt.

Mitch Robinson with skills.

 

[Jatz]

Mitch Robinson will wish he could get to her level come the end of this season!
