LIFE MEMBERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT

On Saturday night, the Boronia Hawks Football & Netball Club had the immense honour of inducting two absolute champions of our club as Life Members — Nathan Allen and Greg “Flash” Hannon.

Nathan Allen – A true Hawka through and through. From his beginnings as a Junior Hawka, Nathan has gone on to play over 250 Senior Games, making him one of the club’s most loyal and respected servants. Off the field, he’s served on the Committee and dedicated his time to nurturing our future stars through Auskick coaching in recent years. A role model, a leader, and a legend — we couldn’t be prouder of the person and clubman Nathan is.


Greg “Flash” Hannon – A powerhouse of passion and leadership. Flash pulled on the brown and gold in 186 Senior Games, later taking the reins as Senior Men’s Coach for 3 seasons. But his biggest impact has been as President for the past 7 years, guiding the club through the most successful era in our 90+ year history. Flash’s commitment, vision, and love for the Hawks have left an indelible mark on the club.


Please join us in congratulating Nathan and Flash on this richly deserved honour. Their dedication to the Boronia Hawks has been nothing short of inspirational.

THE HAWKA MID-YEAR REVIEW | FROM THE PRES.

Our Senior President, Greg “Flash” Hannon has a message for the club community at the mid-point of the season as we head into the June long weekend.

It’s hard to fathom that we are at the halfway point of the season already. What’s not hard to fathom is that our teams are having great success which is not only due to talent but also hard work from the Board, Committee, Coaches, and the army of Volunteers that continue to support our club! 

So – I wish to acknowledge and thank the following:

~ Our players are all just quality people and terrific ambassadors for our club! Keep supporting our functions and keep using your drive, energy, and initiatives to make our club grow and improve.

~ Our coaching staff are not just great coaches but they all build meaningful relationships with their players and care about the wellbeing of each individual at our club.

~ Our Incredible volunteers range from Committee Members to Board Members to the many that just give a little of their time to ensure our club can tick along nicely. Without our volunteers, we just don’t have a club so a huge thank you to you all!

~ To our Hawks Nest Coterie leadership, our Coterie members and to all our supportersthat give our club undivided support on and off the field.

~ Our loyal sponsors. Our sponsors give us the funding that we require to operate a successful club. Thank you to all of you!

~ To the families of our players. Your support behind the scenes often goes unnoticed. You feed, clean, and offer emotional support to your child, husband, wife, partner, parent and we thank you for that. I’m sure our players do!

Flash (Greg Hannon) – Senior Club President
