Ed Vickers-Willis has been nominated for the Jim Stynes Community Leadership Award.

The emerging defender’s work with the club’s not-for-profit arm, The Huddle, has demonstrated Vickers-Willis’ determination to help others, despite a hectic schedule as a professional footballer.

Since arriving at Arden St at the end of 2014, Vickers-Willis has demonstrated resilience, intelligence, initiative and leadership beyond his years, both on and off the field.

At The Huddle, Ed spends countless hours working with young students as part of the Study Support Program, tutoring school aged students in mathematics, physics and accounting.
