McCreery was named the AFL’s fastest player

Collingwood Football Club’s Beau McCreery has won the Gatorade Grand Final Sprint at the 2024 Toyota AFL Grand Final, securing the crown as the league’s fastest player.

McCreery crossed the finish line first ahead of Darcy Wilson (St Kilda) and Eddie Ford (North Melbourne), who took second and third place respectively.

The sprint, presented by Gatorade, saw players compete in the traditional 100-meter dash across the MCG with pre-game heats before the finale at halftime.

As part of its commitment to developing the next generation of soccer players, Gatorade will make a $5,000 donation to the Cove Cobras Junior Football Club, the community club where McCreery began his career.
