FOUR HAWKS REACH CLUB MILESTONES

Please join us all in congratulating four of our senior players who reach personal milestones with the Hawks on 14 June.

A huge congrats to Brayden Wright, who notches up his 100th game for Boronia this weekend! Wrighty was a key part of our Development Squad premierships in 2018 and 2019, holding down the ruck with athleticism and consistency. After a couple of seasons at Ferntree Gully, it’s great to have him back in the brown and gold. Well done, Wrighty!


One of the premier midfielders in the EFNL, Steph Phillips has starred for Boronia since joining in 2021. Runners up in the Ellen Johnson Medal on three occasions, Steph has also been selected in the EFNL Team of the Year in our 2023 premiership year. Congratulations Steph on reaching 50 games in brown and gold!


A huge congratulations to James Gardiner-Hoffman on playing his 50th game for the Boronia Hawks FNC! After a couple of seasons away, we couldn’t be happier to have him back in the brown and gold where he belongs. Welcome home, Jimmy — and here’s to many more games in the Hawka guernsey!


Congratulations to Mitch Mellis, who notches up his 50th senior game for Boronia Football Club this weekend! In just 50 games, Mitch has built an impressive resume – 2 premierships, a Bob Henry Medal, and Division 2 2x League Best & Fairest. A dynamic midfielder with skill and toughness, Mitch consistently leads by example. The son of Boronia great Cam Mellis, Mitch continues the family legacy with pride and passion every time he pulls on the jumper. Well done Mitch – here’s to many more in the brown and gold!
