Hannah Burchell becomes our second sponsored AFLW player.
For those unaware Hannah is a mad Tiger just like the rest of us so she really is living the dream.
From Ocean Grove, Hannah started her football journey with Newtown & Chilwell Football Club which led to a place in the Geelong VFLW side playing in all 31 games in seasons 2017 and 2018. Hannah was then drafted as a pre-listed free agent by the Geelong AFLW side in August 2018 and made her 2019 AFLW debut in R7 against GWS in Canberra. Unfortunately Hannah's season was hampered by quad injuries, the first in her first week of preseason.
Hannah was signed by Richmond as a delisted free agent in April 2019 and while another injury playing with Richmond VFLW in R8 of the 2019 season restricted Hannah to just 3 appearances the injury was at the end of June giving Hannah time to be fit for the 2020 AFLW season.
A strong two way runner who is clean by hand or foot, looking forward to seeing Hannah in yellow and black tearing up and down the ground burning off opponents during the 2020 AFLW season.
We will be cheering you on Hannah!
Not only is it a fantastic effort in generating enough funds to support one AFLW player but to be able to sponsor a second is an awesome result. Well done to those who contributed to not only our AFLW sponsorships but also to those who pitched in for our AFL players as well.
