And that’s a wrap for Boronia Hawk’s Premier Division season 2018, losing to Lilydale and ending our Grand Final hopes 51-66. Lilydale out played us. They shot with accuracy and rarely lost a ball in their possession. Although Hawks had some great game play, we just didn’t have what it takes to win tonight.
Hawks had a great season in Premier Division finishing 4th out of 10 teams. After coming up from Division 1 the team should be very happy with their efforts. We often had a different team each week with 18 players taking the court for us this season. While it’s great to have so many players represent Boronia, next year we hope to have a smaller, more united side who play the whole season as a tight unit and take it all the way to the grand final. I truly believe there are bigger and better things to come from this team.
Bad luck ladies. It’s never fun to lose and miss out on the grand final, especially after such a great season. I do hope you all enjoyed what really was a great season of netball with a lovely group of ladies. Coaching and managing you has been really enjoyable and I truly thank you all for supporting me. Coaching is so much harder (and stressful) than playing, but it’s been really nice to stay involved and watch you all play some great netball. You are such a lovely bunch of talented, kind and friendly girls, your support for each other has been fantastic. Every time a new player came in, you made them feel instantly part of the team. You all played a hard, competitive and clean season of netball and represented our club with class. Bumma we don’t get our GF! You deserve it after this season, but as you all know: that netball! You win it, you lose it, but we love it!!!

Unfortunately after a loss on Friday night the season for our Boronia Brown girls has come to an end.
The game was close from the beginning and extremely intense. With an injury in the second quarter to our star C Lauren Bevan this left no bench for Boronia Brown. Sherridan Martin pulled out her strength for pushing through an injury herself so we were able to have a team of 7 on the court left to battle for the remainder of the game.
Our defence was strong and hard to beat, a rotation of goalers was required from the opposition to try and beat the height, strength and length of Alex and Courtney’s arms in rebounds. An incredible performance from both Caitlin Yann and Dani Kemp in GA and GS, goals on target and movement in the circle was unfaultable.
Chelsea and Mollie in the attacking end as midcourt worked well together especially after not playing together in these positions all season. There was only one collision of the two during the game which was captured on camera as a delightful (and embarrassing) action shot!
We wish Lauren the best in recovering from her ankle injury and cannot wait to celebrate a very hard but well fought season for our Boronia Brown girls. #getaroundthebrown

I’d say it was a fairly even and competitive game tonight against Blackburn. We managed to get a pretty good lead by half time, our biggest margin being 10 goals. Our third quarter was less dominant and Blackburn snuck up on us to bring the score back to even. At one stage they even managed to get a 2 goal lead.
Our defence end was on fire tonight. I can not praise Madison Barrie enough for her fantastic efforts, she was definitely a stand out performer for us. Her hard work and pressure ultimately won us the game. The combination of Madison and Sarah Alexander in defence was fantastic tonight, both girls put constant pressure on the Blackburn goalers and got countless turnovers. T onight was the first time these girls have played together, but they looked like seasoned experts in the ring. Even the coach from the opposition had praise for our defence end! Well done girls.
This week we celebrated Casey Hahn’s 60th game with Boronia. Congratulations Casey on such an achievement.
Going into the last round of the season before finals, sitting on top of the ladder and we took on the bottom of the ladder Belgrave South. We had 6 of our original team with one fill in, so no bench or coach!
Boronia HAWKS v Norwood Black
I’m going to be a harsh coach and say that this week we did not play our cleanest netball. We were driving long and behind and had way too many unforced errors; we were working harder in attack to get the ball to goals than usual.
At half time I gave the girls a brutally honest ‘kick up the butt’ and told them to pick up their game; which they did.
Our defence end were our savours this week. Kasey Lee came to our rescue to fill in last minute and had an absolutely fantastic game in WD. Nat Craven and Madison Barrie were a great combination in defence against very physical goalers. Kasey, Nat and Maddy all played ripper games this week, gaining many turn overs for Hawks. A much better second half saw us take a convincing win 60-38, but maybe we should have won by more given Norwood are sitting bottom of the ladder. 2 games to go!
Boronia Hawks 60 d Norwood Black 38 Goals: J.Rush 44, M. Hutton 10, S. Philp 6, E. Ingwersen, C. Alexander, E. Barrie, M. Barrie, A. Forrest, N. Craven.
Boronia GOLD v Scoresby Soarers
I thought last week was a good win but this week was even better. Scoresby was strong in the first 1/4 and it was goal for goal. We were in front by a couple of goals at the end of the quarter and I thought it was going to be a fight to stay in front. We made a couple of changes and it just worked. Defence was tight and made it hard work for their goalers as they often only had one goaler in the ring. In the last half Sarah was on fire in goals, making great position and hardly missing a shot with 25 goals.
Everyone played an awesome game. Well done again!
Boronia Gold 57 d Scoresby Soarers 29 Goals: S. Grigg 25, J. Hall 24, C. Hahn 6, C. Barnard 2, D. Reynolds, I. Baselier, T. Parker, J. Griffin, S. Shillingford.
Boronia BROWN v FTG White
A feisty and tough game for the Boronia Brown girls this week. This season we have come up against some strong and more physical teams, but this week was unlike any other. What we demonstrated was not only our strength on the court, but our mental strength and maturity. From the start of the game we fought hard to keep the scores as level as possible.
Courtney and Alex in defence held each other up during the game, literally speaking. Not only are Alex’s arms long, but when her full body weight is being held up by Courtney to allow her reach even longer, this makes an unbeatable force! A huge thank you to Naomi for filling in, her young legs were able to hold through the C for us whilst Lauren was away for the week.
Mollie, Sherridan and Amanda worked hard around the circles and bringing the ball down the court. With control, strength and good choices of play they did not need to tire themselves out by trying to play rushed as the opposition. Caitlin and Dani were very accurate and excelled under pressure, a confident goaler is key to success in the season and more importantly leading into finals.
In the last few minutes of the game we were down by 1 goal. With 1 and a half minutes to go, we won a turnover which resulted in a goal to make us even. Luckily after this goal it was then our centre pass to have us in the lead. In this time of nerves and pressure we were able to be calm, centred and take our time to ensure this centre pass resulted in us being in the lead. We scored the goal with no problems. This left 30-40 seconds on the scoreboard with a Ferntree Gully centre. A moment of calmness hit Mollie (WA) who turns to Caitlin (GA) and says ‘you know what, after this whole game I would actually be happy with draw’. But boy was she wrong.
Our hands on and screening pressure became too much for the GS on the opposition. The win by 1 point as the GS missed the goal in the final remaining seconds and for Alex to have the rebound was so much sweeter than any draw could ever be. Amazing game by the Boronia Brown team, a great reminder of sportsmanship, determination, and overall joy for the game. #getaroundthebrown
