New Lights for Tormore Reserve

Posted on by

A massive thank you to Alan Tudge MP, our Federal Member for Aston, who has assisted the Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club in receiving a Federal Grant for the installation of new lights for the ground at Tormore Reserve.

This will be a huge boost for the Club in allowing more flexibility in the scheduling of matches at twilight and early evening. It will also bring our training conditions up to date, with the existing lights being below the required standard.

A huge thank you also to Kerryn Westcott who prepared an outstanding submission for the grant.

As our Club Vision Statement says: “The Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club is One Club working together for success on and off the field”.

Boronia Hawks announce a new partnership with Ferntree Gully Motor Group!

Posted on by

Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club is delighted to announce the signing of a new major sponsor, Ferntree Gully Motor Group.

 

FTG-Motor-group-1
This has the potential to become a most significant relationship between both parties and Michael Banjanin, the Managing Director of the FTG Motor Group is determined to ensure that this new partnership works for both groups. Michael understands local sport and how community clubs operate.

The Ferntree Gully Motor Group was officially formed in 2014 when Ferntree Gully Nissan, the most awarded dealership in Australia, branched out and purchased two other esteemed operations, Ferntree Gully Holden/ HSV/Suzuki and Ferntree Gully Volkswagen. They now also operate Isuzu and LDV as well!

FTG Motor Group is renowned for their service and quality cars. They do not go the hard sell but work hard to develop relationships that last for many years and ongoing car sales flourish due to that stance.
The sponsorship will only work if our players, members and supporters make contact with me, Greg “Flash” Hannon, on ghannon@scopus.vic.edu.au or alternatively call me on 0438 616 130 and I will direct you to the Managing Director, Michael Banjanin who will then ensure you are taken care of and any sale will be credited to our club.

Please feel free to pass this on to friends, family members and work associates. Any recommendation associated with our club gets the club a financial dividend. So spread the word, make a visit to FTG Motor Group before you purchase your next car and make sure I know about it!!!!
Interestingly, the owner of FTG Motor Group, Craig Pearce is a former player of the Club as too is the Used Cars Sales Manager, Brian Burmeister who is a former captain of our under 16’s! Both were really talented players who would have had great playing careers but retired early to pursue their business interests. To have Pearcy and Butch back involved in the club is a great outcome indeed!

Thank you to Deb Rouse!

Posted on by

Now that the AGM is done, our first junior committee meeting is done and first rego day is finished; I wanted to take this opportunity to thank Deb Rouse for all her work over the past number of years.

Deb has been on Committee in some form or another since i joined the footy club some 8 years ago. She has been nothing short of awesome. Nothing was ever been too much trouble for her and she was always looking for ways to grow the club. Deb’s support through their family business has also been fantastic. The club thanks you and Paul for this.

Thanks Deb, please don’t be a stranger. You may still receive the odd phone call from me asking for your advice on things. Your support and help over the last few years has been so appreciated.

Thanks again and we will miss you.

Junior President
