The Committee of the BHFNC is absolutely delighted to announce the re-appointment of Matt Clark as our Senior Men’s Coach for next season.
Matt, our senior coach since 2018, has driven standards; has supported the growth of our talented list; has supported the development of our aspiring leaders; has assisted in the continued development of our strong club culture; and has given our club stability and respect amongst our peers.
Matt’s capacity to build positive relationships with all club stakeholders holds in him great esteem. We are most fortunate to have Matt as our senior coach and we look forward to working alongside him once again in season 2024 to continue his great legacy!

Congratulations to Luke Hannon who plays his 100th game of senior football for the Hawka in this weekend’s semi-final.
A former Eastern Ranges premiership player, captain and best and fairest winner, Luke has also had a similar impact at Boronia.
A senior premiership player in 2018, a two time Bob Henry Medalist and current vice captain and assistant coach, his impact has been profound!
Well done Luke and all the very best in your next 100 games for our club!
BHFNC is excited to announce that Damon Fairchild and Jayden Collins have both re-signed for the 2024 season.
Damon Fairchild is a 2018 senior premiership player and has rarely been out of our best players in season 2023. As a classic utility player who is dependable and consistent; he adds class to any Hawka lineup!
Jayden Collins, also a 2018 senior premiership player, is a former Bob Henry Medalist and top-class Centre Half Back of the competition who is rarely if ever beaten by a big forward.
BHFNC is excited to announce that Haydn Stanley, Jethro Von Hesse and Josh Begley have all re-signed for the 2024 season.
