Another one of own giving back to the club. Darran Hansby is a current Men’s Veterans player who also happens to run and own Stonewood Paving & Landscaping. A BRONZE sponsor who also has been a co-sponsor of our Stubby Holders for the past few years.

He was a hard man to catch but we finally cornered him down at Tormore between jobs to share with him our Premiership success and grab a photo.

Darran comes highly recommended from our members and sponsors who have used his services. We encourage you to give him a call if you are thinking about getting your yard landscaped for the summer.

Thanks Darran for your ongoing support!

PREMIERSHIP CUPS ON TOUR | Knox Club

Our four Premierships cups made a visit to our ‘second home’ and long-term PLATINUM sponsor in the Knox Club.

Our partnership with the Knox Club goes back many years and we are truly grateful for the support they give the club and more so what we can give back to them with our patronage. It was great to catch up with Brian and Janine to show them our new silverware and share our success with the Club.

Whether it be after work drinks on their new deck, dinner with family and friends or a punt on the pokies or TAB, the Knox Club has everything you need to be entertained. Be sure to pay them a visit, buy a membership and more importantly link it to Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club via the application form!

Thanks again to Leigh and the team at the Knox Club for your support in 2023!

Nothing better than sharing our Premiership success with a local Boronia business. McDonalds Boronia has been a major sponsor of our club for a few years now and their support from Auskick all the way through to Seniors has been unwavering. From annual golf day sponsor, merch sponsor, coffee vouchers …. they truly touch every part of our club.
