Boronia FC Netball Round 1

Posted on by

The EFL Netball season starts on Friday 21 April with two of our three teams in action.  Boronia Hawks have the bye first up in Premier Division and will not take the court until Round 2.

The club welcomes all the girls in our new look Boronia Gold in Division 1.  We all hope you really enjoy your first season with us and get off to a great start against Ringwood Red in Round 1.  The game is at 6:45pm at Fairhills High School.

Boronia Brown in Division 4 made finals for the first time in 2016 and will be looking to build on that this season.  They have a couple of personnel changes only, so the core group stays together for their third season. The Brownies play UFTG Black at 8:10pm at Oxley College.
