We couldn’t be more thrilled to announce that Jazmin Stratton has signed with Boronia for the 2026 season.
Jazmin joins us from Lysterfield where she kicked 16 goals from 9 games last season in U18 A grade. Jaz has already made a big impact on the track and we’re excited for her first season of Senior football next year in brown and gold.
The much-loved Craig “Brocky” Brockley may have had a bit of heart maintenance recently, but don’t let that fool you — the old bloke is already back plotting his next move.
Not only is he on the road to a full recovery, he’s already locked himself in as Team Manager for our Men’s Development Squad in 2026. That’s right… fresh out of surgery and keen to get back into the thick of it.
All the best, Brocky — wishing you a slow, steady, and very un-Brocky recovery.

We couldn’t be more thrilled to welcome Zoe Lynch to Boronia for the 2026 season.
Zoe joins us from Bayswater where she was named in the EFNL Team of the Year last season. Zoe plays predominantly across the backline, is a strong overheard mark and good ball user, but can play any position across the ground. We can’t wait to have Zoe and her family in brown and gold this season, and beyond.
We couldn’t be more excited to announce our Senior Assistant Coaches for our Premier Women’s side in 2026.
We’re pleased to welcome Steve Brotja to Boronia, after he has spent the last five years with Upwey, the past three as their Senior Coach, where he is also a life member and played over 200 games. Steve previously coached within the Eastern Ranges program where he first connected with our Senior coach Sean Buncle. We can’t wait to have Steve in brown and gold.
Also returning will be Scott Nicholas and Tim Cavanagh. Scott spent seven seasons as our Senior Coach, leading us to a Division 1 Premiership in 2023 before transitioning to Women’s Football Operations while maintaining an Assistant Coach role.
Tim joins us for his fourth season as part of the Women’s program taking on a number of roles across Senior and Development teams following a successful stint at Ferntree Gully where he took the side to a minor Premiership in 2021.
Josh returns after his first season in 2025, where he has already built incredible relationships across the squad, and brings a great balance of fun, care and guidance to the group. Dean joins the Senior program after coaching our Under 18 Girls side in 2025, and we’re excited to add his knowledge and expertise to the ranks in supporting our big numbers of U18s joining the Senior squad next season.
Boronia FNC would like to thank Dave O’Reilly and Ray Lacey for their contributions to our women’s football program as the outgoing coaches of our Masters Women’s team.
Both Dave and Ray have had long histories at the club, and over the past few years have played an important role in our Women’s Masters team. While they’ll both still be around the club and supporting the program, we will miss them on the sidelines with the Masters and their impact will be felt for many seasons to come.
We’re excited to have announced last week that Danny Weston has been appointed to coach the Masters for season 2026.
