Boronia Hawks BHFNC is moving towards a cashless system in 2021.

Posted on by

BRING YOUR PLASTIC CARDS PLEASE! Boronia Hawks BHFNC is moving towards a cashless system in 2021.


To help reduce the health and safety risk for our volunteers, Boronia Hawks FNC will accept plastic cards or phone payments in place of cash for most of our face-to-face sales. We will offer EFT or EFTPOS payments for Club memberships, uniforms, merchandise, social events, bar and canteen. We will continue to accept cash at the canteen, but with a strong preference for “tap and go” payments. We can still accept cash for larger payments for now, if necessary, but are moving to be a cash-free club for the season.


We hope that you all understand that this change is necessary as part of our COVID-19 protocols as we move into the new season. But it also helps us to reduce the administrative burden and personal risk for our volunteers who are responsible for the handling and banking of cash. People are used to swiping or tapping a card for food, entertainment and services nowadays and we ask for your support as we respond to community expectations.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you.
