Kieran Edwards Joins the Hawks
Boronia Hawks Football Netball Club is very pleased to announce that KIERAN EDWARDS has signed on with the Hawka for 2023!
Kieran played juniors for Lysterfield before joining Knox in 2019 for Under 19’s. He went on to play 32 senior games for Knox and Kieran was the leading goal kicker for Knox last season with 29 goals. He will be a dangerous addition to our forward line in 2023.
Kieran said “I’m really looking forward to putting in the work and hopefully building towards something big in 2023. It seems like a very tight group down at the Hawks and I’m looking forward to playing with a few good mates and building connections on and off the field with others.”
Please welcome Kieran and his family to the Hawka!
