A huge congratulations to Max Nicoll, who will play his first game for the Eastern Ranges in Round 14 along with three other Boronia Hawks U19 team mates.
We look forward to watching Max continue to develop and represent both the Eastern Ranges and the Boronia Hawks with pride. Well done Max the whole club is right behind you.
In Round 12 we celebrate a special milestone for one of our most loyal and respected Hawks. Brenton McAlpine will run out for his 150th game for the Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club.
Brenton started his journey with the club back in 2006 as a junior, and he’s worn the brown and gold with pride ever since. Over the years, he’s grown into a consistent senior player, a team leader, and a great role model for others across the club.
His career highlights include:
• Under 15’s Best and Fairest in 2009
• Under 16’s Best and Fairest in 2010
• Under 19’s Best and Fairest in 2013
• Senior debut in 2014
• Senior Coach’s Award in 2015
• Member of the 2018 Senior Premiership team
• 100th senior game in 2019.
And now reaching 150 total club games but Brenton’s contribution goes far beyond his playing record. Off the field, he’s a dedicated volunteer and much-loved Auskick coach, giving up his time to help develop the next generation of young Hawks. He sets a fantastic example through both his actions and his attitude.
Congratulations Brenton on reaching 150 games. You’re a fantastic footballer, a selfless teammate, and someone the entire club is proud of. We’re incredibly lucky to have you at Boronia. Let’s all get around him this weekend.
Please join us all in congratulating four of our senior players who reach personal milestones with the Hawks on 14 June.
A huge congrats to Brayden Wright, who notches up his 100th game for Boronia this weekend! Wrighty was a key part of our Development Squad premierships in 2018 and 2019, holding down the ruck with athleticism and consistency. After a couple of seasons at Ferntree Gully, it’s great to have him back in the brown and gold. Well done, Wrighty!

Congratulations to Mitch Mellis, who notches up his 50th senior game for Boronia Football Club this weekend! In just 50 games, Mitch has built an impressive resume – 2 premierships, a Bob Henry Medal, and Division 2 2x League Best & Fairest. A dynamic midfielder with skill and toughness, Mitch consistently leads by example. The son of Boronia great Cam Mellis, Mitch continues the family legacy with pride and passion every time he pulls on the jumper. Well done Mitch – here’s to many more in the brown and gold!
