THANK YOU TO KAT McMAHON

Kat McMahon stepped down as Chair of the Club’s Board of Directors at the recent AGM. We all wish to express our thanks to Kat for the important work she helped to deliver for the club.

Kat McMahon

Kat’s expertise was essential in the roll-out of our Square project including the IT hardware, the new online store and the associated upgrade of our comm’s network at Tormore with Your Local Telecom. Kat also played a key role in the review of our club branding and the resultant partnership with Your Clubroom to deliver our very successful new range of club apparel and merchandise.

Though she has retired from netball and footy with the Hawka, Kat played an important support role in the Women’s Senior Team as the Premiership Statistician! She rounded off the season by managing the very successful hosting of the Division 1 Men’s Finals Series at Tormore.

Please join us all in thanking Kat for her contribution to the club.

PREMIERSHIP CUPS ON TOUR | Hawks Nest Coterie Group

Posted on by

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!
