Posted on by

Boronia Hawks FNC is very proud to announce the appointment of four great Boronia people as Assistant Coaches for the 2025 Women’s Football Season.

We’re thrilled to announce that Scott Nicholas will continue with our squad as Senior Assistant Coach in 2025. Scott has been integral in developing the squad since 2018, and coached our Senior Women to the Division 1 Premiership in 2023. Scott will work closely with our new Head Coach Sean Buncle, with a focus on leadership and culture and the broader women’s program.

Assistant Coach (Senior – Forwards) We’re thrilled to have Nicole Guy back on board in 2025 as an Assistant Coach. Working with our Senior forwardline for the past two seasons, Nicole adds a wealth of knowledge, understanding of the game and builds incredible, supportive and fun relationships with the playing group.

Assistant Coach (Senior – Backs). We couldn’t be more excited to announce Bree Watson as one of our Assistant Coaches for 2025. Bree is a natural leader who has begun her Coach Development as Captain of the Senior squad, and has naturally played the role of guiding and supporting our backs over the last few years. Bree will continue her learning taking on more responsibility with the backs this season.

Development Women Assistant Coach – We couldn’t be more excited to announce Tim Cavanagh as Assistant Coach for our Development side in 2025. Tim is highly experienced in women’s football, much loved amongst our playing group and builds incredible relationships with our playing group. Formerly Senior Assistant Coach and Senior runner, Tim moves into a new role this season and is excited to be working with some of our new and developing players.

Announcement | 2024 Senior Women’s Coaches

Posted on by

Boronia Hawks are excited to announce the Senior Women’s Coaching panel for the 2024 season. The coaches who took the team through the finals to win the Division 1 premiership have all been re-appointed.

Please join us all in congratulating Scott Nicholas as head coach and assistants Nicole Guy and Lachie Watson, while Brad Slater is appointed in a new role as Senior Women’s Performance Manager.

We are fortunate to have these four coaches with strong experience with women’s football programs. They have been instrumental in developing our team culture, values and game plans and empowering our players to take on their own leadership within the squad. We look forward to the coaches and players continuing their development pathways and to achieving successful outcomes again in the coming season.

Scott Nicholas has been appointed to coach our Senior Women’s Team for the sixth season following the 2023 Division 1 premiership. Scott is now widely recognised as a leading Women’s coach in the EFNL and was the league’s Senior Coach of the Year, across men and women’s football, in 2021. He was also named as Coach of the 2023 Division 1 Team of the Year.

Nicole Guy was welcomed to the Hawks’ coaching panel during the 2023 season, coming over from Ferntree Gully. She won one B&F with FTG and was also runner up B&F, despite suffering two severe knee injuries in each of her two seasons. The injuries curtailed her playing career, so she began coaching, including the 2022 season in Premier Division alongside Tim Cavanagh. Nicole very quickly became a valued part of the Boronia coaching team and played a key role in the latter part of the season.

Lachie Watson will continue in his role as Senior Assistant Coach, having been with the team from the first season in 2018. Lachie is well known to all Hawks supporters for his explosive football skills since he came up from the juniors. He now applies his excellent football brain and teaching skills to our Women’s Program again in 2024.

Brad Slater will take up a new role as Senior Women’s Performance Manager in 2024. He has been part of Boronia’s coaching team for two years and brings enormous experience to the squad. He played over 200 games at Mitcham in Division 1 before an extensive coaching career, most recently with St. Simons and Rowville Knights where he coached Under 15, Under 16 and Under 18 girls from 2016-2020.
