Former division one college basketball player
Ned Renfree has committed to Richmond’s VFL program for 2026, bringing his trademark competitiveness to the Swinburne Centre.
Hailing from Ballarat, Victoria, Renfree grew up playing football, where he rose through the talent pathways and represented the GWV Rebels alongside Sam Lalor and Jonty Faull.
Renfree also represented Australia as a junior basketballer, which led him to pursue an opportunity overseas, where he joined the Milwaukee Panthers for the 2025/26 college basketball season.
However, the 19-year-old has now returned to footy and is looking to make an immediate impact within the program.
Standing at 188cm tall, the explosive forward combines speed, athleticism and power with an elite aerial marking skill set.
