PREMIERSHIP CUPS ON TOUR | Hawks Nest Coterie Group
The Hawks Nest Coterie Group has been the heartbeat of the club for 14 years now, providing much needed sponsorship money back to the club. The group has 80 plus dedicated supporters who turn up in numbers every home game but also travel to our away games. They are passionate and can be heard cheering from miles away!
As a club we are so fortunate to have the Coterie group not only for their sponsorship but the droves of volunteers they provide when hosting finals at Tormore.
The Coterie committee consists of Bomma, Leanne & Dillio Rech, Panda & Plugger who jumped at the opportunity to grab a photo with the cups @ Tormore.
Thanks again Coterie and we know this year has been a special one that has provided the group with the reward for the years of support!

A message from Greg “Flash”Hannon
150 GAMES | SEAN BELL
Congratulations to Sean Bell who runs out for his 150th senior game with the Boronia Hawks, this Sunday at Mitcham in the Preliminary Final against East Burwood.
Sean is a dour defender, who has consistently demonstrated his coolness under pressure, making him an invaluable asset to our team over the years. He possesses a wealth of senior experience in the backline, where he has time and time again proven his mettle against the best opposition forwards and it’s safe to say that he is rarely, if ever, beaten. He thrives in the heart of the action, yet he remains a no-fuss footballer. One of Sean’s standout qualities is his ability to read the play with precision and make sound decisions in the heat of the moment. He is also a great club person who is always willing to help out when asked.
Congratulations Sean, on this great milestone! Here’s to many more games and success in the Brown and Gold!
100 GAMES | LUKE HANNON
Congratulations to Luke Hannon who plays his 100th game of senior football for the Hawka in this weekend’s semi-final.
A former Eastern Ranges premiership player, captain and best and fairest winner, Luke has also had a similar impact at Boronia.
A senior premiership player in 2018, a two time Bob Henry Medalist and current vice captain and assistant coach, his impact has been profound!
Well done Luke and all the very best in your next 100 games for our club!
50 GAMES | TYSON HENRY
Tyson Henry celebrates his 50th game in the brown and gold this Saturday, bringing his EFNL total to over 101 games across two clubs.
A great club person and stylish left footed defender, Tyson has been great for the Hawka over the past couple of seasons and we look forward to him making forwards earn every kick for the foreseeable future.
