Parents of our senior men’s players were invited in to the rooms before the games against East Burwood to acknowledge their support to the boys throughout their footy careers.
Prior to the Senior Game, Coach Matt Clark spoke first, followed by Frank Robertson and Karen Butler speaking from the parents’ perspective. Luke Hannon responded on behalf of the players.
In the Development Team, Coach Craig Brockley spoke on behalf of the club with parents Pip Allen and Stuart McDonald peaking about their experiences, with captain Nathan Allen rounding it off.
Thanks to all involved for supporting this inititative to bring the club families together in the Hawka community. Parents adjourned for drinks and nibbles in the social rooms before the main game.
The BHFNC sends its sincere condolences to Simon ‘Horse’ West on the passing of his much loved mother Sylvia. Sylvia West had a stroke recently and unfortunately did not recover. Sylvia, also Nana to Kristan Wood was the mother of 8 children and as such obviously lived a very full life.
We wish Simon, Kristan and all of their family members our best wishes during this difficult time.
Last Saturday night the rooms were packed and the annual 200 Draw was a success once again.

Our Senior President, Greg “Flash” Hannon has a message for the club community at the mid-point of the season as we head into the June long weekend.
It’s hard to fathom that we are at the halfway point of the season already. What’s not hard to fathom is that our teams are having great success which is not only due to talent but also hard work from the Board, Committee, Coaches, and the army of Volunteers that continue to support our club!
So – I wish to acknowledge and thank the following:
~ Our players are all just quality people and terrific ambassadors for our club! Keep supporting our functions and keep using your drive, energy, and initiatives to make our club grow and improve.
~ Our coaching staff are not just great coaches but they all build meaningful relationships with their players and care about the wellbeing of each individual at our club.
~ Our Incredible volunteers range from Committee Members to Board Members to the many that just give a little of their time to ensure our club can tick along nicely. Without our volunteers, we just don’t have a club so a huge thank you to you all!
~ To our Hawks Nest Coterie leadership, our Coterie members and to all our supportersthat give our club undivided support on and off the field.
~ Our loyal sponsors. Our sponsors give us the funding that we require to operate a successful club. Thank you to all of you!
~ To the families of our players. Your support behind the scenes often goes unnoticed. You feed, clean, and offer emotional support to your child, husband, wife, partner, parent and we thank you for that. I’m sure our players do!
From our great supporter, Jackson Taylor MP: “$1.2 million to help deliver a new pavilion at Tormore Reserve in Boronia is now fully funded. In other words – you beauty!”
It was a four year journey for me since elected in 2018 to get to the commitment of $1.2 million to deliver new facilities for Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club and Boronia Cricket Club, but it’s been an even longer journey for them.
So this is an exciting moment. With funding now in the budget that means we can move a step closer to delivering the facilities these legends and the broader community deserve.
$1 million will go towards delivering the new pavilion and $200,000 will go to helping the clubs fit-out the rooms – which means a lot of the stress that usually comes with a new home.
It’s no secret. I’m a massive supporter of grassroots sports and unashamedly so. I believe in it’s power to change lives.
And with these new facilities – it’ll make that job even easier and encourage more people to get involved, particularly girls and women who maybe couldn’t have due to the dated facilities not being fit for purpose.
This will change all that. Now, let’s get on with it!
