Boronia Hawks FNC is very excited to welcome Lachlan Coverdale to the club for the 2025 season. Lachie has a very good record of junior footy in A and B grades, with one flag up his sleeve. Covers has already played some Under 19’s and will bring great experience to the team. He is versatile and can play in a number of positions up or back.
Boronia Hawks FNC is thrilled to announce the signing of WILLIAM JONES for the 2025 season.
After two standout years playing U17s A Grade at North Ringwood, while also splitting his time with Eastern Ranges, William is eager to join Boronia under the newly formed coaching group of Luke, Begs and Jayden. As a ruckman, he’s ready to take the next step in his football journey, and we’re excited to see his growth and contribution in both U19s and seniors. Welcome to the Hawks, William!
Boronia Hawks FNC is excited to announce that JAMES HOFFMAN is #backtoboronia and has signed to play again in 2025, which will be his fourth senior season with the Hawks.
Hoff took the season off in 2023 and played some games in the Outer East but is now back home. Like many of our squad, he started with the Hawks in Under 9’s and played a massive 132 junior games. He played a lot of very good footy in the 19’s, and was a premiership player in 2018. A foundation member of “The Fortress”, the renowned defensive unit of the Dev. Squad, Hoff will be a very welcome player to have back at the Hawka for many years yet.
Boronia Hawks FNC is thrilled to announce the signing of DANIEL HOUEIX for the coming seasons. Daniel brings a wealth of experience from his playing and coaching roles within the EFNL, most notably as a member of the 2023 Mitcham senior premiership team and as an assistant coach for the Mitcham U19.5 team. His playing background also includes time with Eastern Ranges.
On the professional side, Dan is currently with the EFNL in the important role of Junior Football Manager. He “spent the last 6 years working at the Collingwood Football Club across several roles, including Member and Fan Operations Coordinator and Consumer Operations Manager as well as assisting in the Collingwood VFL and VFLW operation teams”. That’s a great resume.
Daniel’s leadership and knowledge of Division 1 will be a fantastic addition to the Hawks. As Daniel said “The opportunity and fresh start with a good bunch of lads really excites me, and especially after speaking with Clarky last week, I’m excited with what we can achieve in Division 1“.
Please join us all in welcoming Dan to the Hawks.
Boronia Hawks FNC is delighted to announce the signing of Jordan Church. Jordan, the son of former Bob Henry Medallist Russell Church and nephew to former star Rod ‘Rocket’ Church will be a welcomed addition to our already burgeoning father-and-son brigade.
Jordan is an exciting recruit with a fantastic record over the past few years. He won the 2022 FTG B&F in Under 17A, finishing top three in the league. He made his senior debut in 2023 and played every senior game. In 2024, Jordan has just won the FTG Senior B&F as an 18 year old and was selected in the 2024 Division 3 Team of the Year.
Jordan’s pop, Mark, was a massive supporter of our club and would be looking down proudly on this signing knowing his grandson has joined the club he loved so much! It is great to have the Church family back at Boronia.
Boronia Hawks FNC is extremely happy to announce that BRAYDEN WRIGHT has signed to return to Boronia in 2025, which will be his seventh season of senior football with the Hawks.
Wrighty has played 90 senior games with Boronia, including two Reserves flags, after debuting as a 17 year old in 2016. He spent the last two seasons at FTG, his original junior club, and did very well. Good big men are hard to find so we are delighted to welcome Wrighty back to Tormore.
We are extremely pleased to announce some of the members of our squad for Masters Football in 2024.
Thank you to LEIGH BROWN and BROWN & CO LAWYERS for player sponsorship of EMILY WELLINGTON for the 2024 season.
Em has really impressed since joining in preseason training and will be one to watch in the midfield this season.
More good news as Youngy will be playing with the Hawks again in 2024. He may have made his name with Wantirna South but this will be his 3rd stint in Brown & Gold after Under 17’s in 2012 and senior footy in 2021/22. Great to have you back!
It’s great to have Cob back at the Hawka, where he belongs! He started with Boronia Auskick and went all through Juniors then Seniors with the club, before a few seasons with other clubs. Welcome home!
