Congratulations to our 2025 Sport Captain – Nick Driscoll Drafted to the AFL
We are thrilled to celebrate an incredible milestone for our 2025 Sport Captain, Nick Driscoll, who has been selected by Geelong with the final pick in the AFL Rookie Draft.
This achievement is the result of Nick’s hard work, determination and commitment to continuous improvement. His strong performances this season saw him invited to the State Draft Combine, as well as make his VFL debut with the Northern Bullants - both clear recognition of his readiness to take the next step in his football journey.
But while talent plays a part, it is Nick’s character that truly sets him apart. He leads by example, and is supportive, humble and always willing to put in the extra effort, with his positive influence felt across our sporting programs. During Nick’s time at the College he was involved in the our Elite and Emerging Athlete Program (EEAP), and won EEAP Athlete of the Year in 2024.
On the very day of his drafting, Nick attended the College Valedictory dinner celebration, welcomed with cheers and warm embraces from his peers and teachers.
As Nick prepares to embark on life at the elite level with the Cats, he does so with the full pride and support of the ELTHAM community. We cannot wait to see what comes next and will be cheering for him every step of the way.
Congratulations Nick - we are so proud of you.
