2025 COACHING APPOINTMENTS

Posted on by

Boronia Hawks FNC is proud to announce that STEVE TEAKEL and DREW O’HARE have recommitted to roles as assistant coaches with the senior men’s team for the 2025 season. Together with our Senior Coach, Matt Clark, we believe this to be an extremely strong coaching panel. Steve and Drew are enormously respected within the club and throughout the league. 

Steve’s experience, his level headedness and his football knowledge built over so many years of involvement at a local level makes him the perfect foil for Matt Clark. The two men are close friends, they have coached together for many years now and complement each other. Teaks is an absolute asset to our club and we hope he has many more years of coaching involvement at the ‘Hawka.’

Drew has been a respected and admired coach at Boronia for many, many years and is a Life Member of the Club. One of the most passionate and committed of Boronia people, Drew brings a wealth of football and club knowledge to the table and we are so grateful for his continued service to our club. 

Please join us all in thanking Steve and Drew for their loyalty and commitment to the Hawks.

WELCOME TO THE HAWKS | MITCHELL SMITH & TYSON SPURR

Posted on by

Boronia Hawks FNC is very excited to announce the signing of TYSON SPURR and MITCHELL SMITH for the 2025 season.

Tyson played A grade junior footy at Wantirna South and The Basin, playing in multiple final series. He took the past 18 months off to focus on an opportunity to play in the senior basketball team at school and competed in two Australian School Championships. He is now very eager to get back into footy and ready to covert his basketball IQ onto the footy field. Mitch has played all his junior career at Knox and can play good footy down back or up forward as a flanker.

Please join us all in welcoming them to our 2025 Under 19’s.

His business GK Travel & Cruise has also been with us all the way. Located in Mountain Gate, Hollywood and his team give you the personal service you won’t get online with the added protection of assisting you if things change or go wrong while you’re travelling. Support the businesses that support the club. We can’t recommend GK Travel & Cruise highly enough for your next holiday or work trip. Thanks again Hollywood for your many years of support!
