  • Senior President (2018–2019): Overseeing the historic Triple Premiership in 2018.
  • Club Chairman (2019–2022): Providing steady leadership and vision through the COVID pandemic.
  • Women’s Team Coach (2018–2024): The driving force behind our women’s program.

Thank you for your continued dedication and for backing Dylan and Tamlynn for the 2026 season!


PLAYER SPONSORSHIPS | MADDY & SOPHIE STARK

We are absolutely thrilled to announce a brand-new partnership for the 2026 season! A massive thank you to Jake Edwards and the Moondani Toombadool Centre for jumping on board as player sponsors for sisters Maddy and Sophie Stark!

The Moondani Toombadool Centre, established in 2018 at Swinburne, is a transformational leader grounded in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledges. In the Woiwurrung language of the Wurundjeri People, Moondani Toombadool means ‘embracing teaching and learning’—a sentiment that we are proud to carry on our journey this year.

Maddy is coming off an absolute blinder of a 2025 season! She’s proven herself as one of the rising stars in the league, recently earning: EFNL Team of the Year honors; Club Best & Fairest; Division 3 Leading Goal Kicker. “Starky” has slotted 64 goals over the last three seasons. We can’t wait to see what she and Sophie achieve with this incredible support behind them!

Join us in thanking Jake Edwards and the Moondani Toombadool Centre.

PRACTICE MATCH 1 | DONE AND DUSTED!

It was a handy hit out as our Women’s Squad completed their preseason camp with a six quarter match against Beaumaris on Sunday at Seaford.

Hot conditions prevailed so the game was cut short but the Hawks were able to get a good run in. New players across Senior and Development teams were able to have their first hit out in brown and gold and we’re excited for our next practice match on 21 March!

Thanks to Beaumaris for the game and to Goodyear Autocare Boronia for supporting our teams!
