Vale Garry Field

Posted on by

Boronia Football Club is saddened to hear of the passing of esteemed friend and life member, Garry Field.

Garry was a long time supporter of the footy club, filling many roles including that of bar manager, property steward and raffle ticket seller. He was a member of the club’s committee for more than 15 years and also took on the role of club president in 1995. Quiet and reserved by nature, Garry was a deep thinker who raised many ideas that he hoped would fulfil his passion to see Boronia Football Club become a powerhouse in eastern suburbs football.

With his respected position in both the football club and Boronia Cricket Club, one of Garry’s deepest desires was to see both clubs become a unified sporting club jointly sharing and managing one of Melbourne’s best local sporting venues.

The Boronia Football Club Board, Past Players’ Group and all members extend their heartfelt thoughts and condolences to Garry’s family and friends.

Girls Footy “Come and Try” Day

Posted on by

The Boronia Hawks Girls Footy “Come and Try” Day was a great success with all the girls getting stuck into it and having a great time. We all look forward to another footy clinic for the girls during the September holidays.

Harry Burgess, BFC GM, had a dream team assembled to look after the girls. We extend a huge thank you to: Olivia Flanagan from Box Hill Hawks VFL Womens & Vic Metro Girls; Mel Hogg & Elle Short, womens football players with AFL Victoria; Sean Buncle from EFL; Craig McKenzie from BJFC; and Damon Webb from BFNC.

Boronia Football Club and Boronia Junior Football Club are working together to give girls in Boronia the opportunity to enjoy a good game of footy out on the ground, not from the sidelines. Look out for more action photos on Facebook very soon!
