Posted on by

We are incredibly proud to announce that club stalwart Scott Nicholas is continuing his longstanding support of the Boronia Hawks as the Player Sponsor for Dylan Dower and Tamlynn Collins!

Scott’s legacy at our club is nothing short of legendary. From 2000 to 2025, he has been a One Club Player, amassing over 300 games as both a player and coach across our junior and senior programs. Scott’s energy and drive have been the backbone of some of our greatest achievements:

  • Senior President (2018–2019): Overseeing the historic Triple Premiership in 2018.
  • Club Chairman (2019–2022): Providing steady leadership and vision through the COVID pandemic.
  • Women’s Team Coach (2018–2024): The driving force behind our women’s program.

Thank you for your continued dedication and for backing Dylan and Tamlynn for the 2026 season!

Posted on by

We are absolutely thrilled to announce a brand-new partnership for the 2026 season! A massive thank you to Jake Edwards and the Moondani Toombadool Centre for jumping on board as player sponsors for sisters Maddy and Sophie Stark!

The Moondani Toombadool Centre, established in 2018 at Swinburne, is a transformational leader grounded in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledges. In the Woiwurrung language of the Wurundjeri People, Moondani Toombadool means ‘embracing teaching and learning’—a sentiment that we are proud to carry on our journey this year.

Maddy is coming off an absolute blinder of a 2025 season! She’s proven herself as one of the rising stars in the league, recently earning: EFNL Team of the Year honors; Club Best & Fairest; Division 3 Leading Goal Kicker. “Starky” has slotted 64 goals over the last three seasons. We can’t wait to see what she and Sophie achieve with this incredible support behind them!

Join us in thanking Jake Edwards and the Moondani Toombadool Centre.
