Congratulations to Tess Maloney, recognised by VAFA as the Anytime Fitness Women’s Rising Star for Round 18.
This year at just 16, Tess joined the Port Melbourne Chargers. In Round 4 Tess debuted with the Port Chargers senior team and has played a total of 17 games for the Chargers this season.
This recognition highlights not only her impact on the field but also the exciting pathway we’re building for women’s football in Port Melbourne.
While Tess prefers to stay out of the spotlight, with 154 games and close to 100 goals already under her belt across junior and senior football Tess is a shining example of the Port Melbourne Pathway.
We’re proud of Tess and the way she represents our club and look forward to Tess continuing next year in the red and blue — charging into the future.
