THANK YOU TO HAWKS NEST COTERIE GROUP
A very big thank you to our magnificent supporters from the Hawks Nest Coterie Group who made a generous donation to headspace Knox as a result of yesterday’s lunch at the club. We thank them for joining us in supporting this great organisation. We hope you all had a great day! Thanks to Sammi D for the photos.
THANK YOU HEADSPACE KNOX
Boronia Hawks FNC is very privileged to be involved with headspace Knox in the annual Headspace Cup against neighbouring club The Basin. Yesterday’s game resulted in a win for the Hawks, but more importantly it brought into focus the essential role played by headspace throughout Australia. We extend our thanks to headspace Knox for facilitating our participation in spreading their message.
headspace is Australia’s National Youth Mental Health Foundation, providing early intervention mental health services to 12–25 year-olds. Based at Westfield Knox Ozone, headspace offers young people a welcoming environment where they can access confidential and free mental health support, health advice, and general information.
Our very own Dylan Dower is also a supporter of headspace Knox through his business Grow Club. headspace receives 100% of all the profits earned by the sale of Dyl’s “go easy” hoodies. These hoodies were presented yesterday to players in the three games against The Basin.
A big thank you goes to Chris from headspace, The Basin Football Netball Club committee and players; and to Dylan Dower.
SENIOR DEBUTS
Congratulations to two of our Under 18 girls making their debut in our Senior Women’s Premier Division Team on Saturday against The Basin.
We hope both Shayla and Charity had a great time and really enjoyed the experience.
Boronia’s Under 18 Girls Team is proudly supported by Hawks Nest Coterie Group.
50 GAMES | BREE WATSON
Please join us all in congratulating BREE WATSON on achieving the milestone of 50 games with Boronia Hawks.
Bree played netball for the Hawks before signing up for footy in 2018. Bree went on to captain the club in 2022 and was of course our inaugural premiership captain in 2023. She has been a fixture in the backline but did sneak forward for one memorable goal in 2022! Bree is very proudly supported by Phil Watson and Complete Sports Services.
WORLD’S GREATEST SHAVE | JOFFA!
One of Boronia Hawks most lovable characters, amazing volunteer and passionate Vets player Geoff “Joffa” Bell will be taking part in this year’s Worlds Greatest Shave to raise money and awareness in the battle against leukaemia.
With arguably the best mop of hair currently gracing ovals in the EFNL, he will shave it all off this Thursday night in front of a packed Hawka clubroom if everyone can dig deep enough.
Please support this bloke by chipping in a few bucks or whatever you can. If you can’t make it up to the club on Thursday night you can help Joffa by making a donation online by clicking on this link.
JACKSON TAYLOR MP | THANKS AGAIN!
We are excited to announce that Jackson Taylor MP is on board again as a loyal sponsor of Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club!
We’re glad to have Jackson on board for another season. As we all know, Jackson is a strong supporter of Boronia Hawks, helping to secure $1.2 million from the State Labor Government for the new Tormore Reserve Pavilion.
Jackson knows the difference that a club like Boronia can make in the lives of our community, and we’re very much looking forward to working with him. Make sure to get around Jackson and say hello next time we see him at Tormore Reserve!
