SENIOR DEBUT | HARRIET KNIJFF

Congratulations to Harriet Knijff for making her Senior Debut yesterday. Harriet has moved to Victoria to be a part of Port Melbourne’s VFLW program, after playing with University of Queensland in the QAFLW.

Harriet is a strong, physical mid and we love having her in brown and gold! Please make her welcome at the Hawka!


PREMIER WOMEN | TEN NEW PLAYERS FOR ROUND 1!

It was an incredible start to the season to bring in 10 new players and have them absolutely click from the outset to record a huge win over a strong opponent. Sean and the coaching team did a great job getting to this point but full credit goes to the players.

Congratulations to Jemima Fulton, Georgia Kavanagh, Maddy Stark, Zoe Wright, Charity Poe, Indi Makai, Ella Dempster, Sophie Stark, Zoe Lynch and Abbey Broughan.

We hope you love your footy with Boronia!


MILESTONE | 100 GAMES FOR RACHAEL PARNES

What a huge milestone for Rachael Parnes who played her 100th game of football on Saturday. Rach started with Knox in 2018, playing 26 games there before coming over to the Hawka in 2021.

74 games later Parnesy is a huge part of our women’s program having played Firsts, Dev and Masters over the journey. Surely 150 won’t be too far away!


CONGRATULATIONS! DEBUTANTS FOR THE PREMIER DIVISION HAWKS!

We couldn’t be prouder than to welcome so many new players and their families to our Women’s Football Program for 2026. (A few more to come too!)

Congratulations to Abbey Broughan, Ella Dempster, Jemima Fulton, Georgie Kavanagh, Indi Makai, Maddy Stark, Sophie Stark, Zoe Lynch, Charity Poe and Zoe Wright! Very best wishes to all these new players as they hit the ground in the brown and gold on Saturday in Round 1. We hope you love it!

As always a very big thank you to our very special sponsors at Goodyear Autocare Boronia and Knox Club!


JUNIORS TO SENIORS | DEBUTS

Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club is excited to announce the senior debut of CAYDEN WOOD. A true one-club player, Cayden has played over 130 junior games in the brown and gold and has put together one of the most decorated junior careers seen at the Hawks. His achievements include 3× EFNL League Best & Fairest awards (2021–2023) and an incredible 5× Boronia Club Best & Fairest, along with representative honours at EFNL Interleague and is currently a member of the Eastern Ranges.

A well deserved opportunity and with the Wood name back out at Tormore, make sure you get down early to watch Woody (try not to) get too emotional pre-game.


We’re also very proud to celebrate five young guns making their Senior debuts — Emily, Charity, Jasmine, Maddie, and Shayla.

All five girls have graduated through our Junior Pathway program, and now take the next step pulling on the senior jumper. A fantastic achievement and a great sign for the future of the Boronia Hawks.

Congratulations girls — enjoy the moment and we can’t wait to see you out there!
