JUNIOR FINALS AT MILLERS

Huge congratulations to David Murrihy and an awesome team of Wayno, Flash, Grant, Neil, Reddars, Billy, Geoff, John, Johnny, Ellen and the canteen team, our senior women, the Hawks Nest Coterie and the “always put your hand up regulars” for running an amazing Juniors Grand Final Day at Millers. Some even missed seeing their own kids playing finals for the good of the club. Special thanks to Kerri and Kira Odd and James from the Juniors who helped all day.


INTERESTED IN HELPING DEVELOP A CLUB NEWSLETTER?

The Hawks would like to develop a club newsletter for club members in early 2025. The newsletter will deliver important club information using a simple process. This is a “one club” newsletter that will cover everything from Auskick, Juniors, Seniors, Coterie, supporters and sponsors.

This is a one-time project to set up a newsletter design email database. You do not need to develop content for the newsletter!

If you have suitable skills, knowledge or enthusiasm we would love for you to lend us a hand. For more information, please reach out to Dave Nicholas via FB Messenger or on 0403 223 477 or boroniahawksfc@gmail.com


2025 BOARD and COMMITTEES

Boronia Hawks FNC is very fortunate to have many great people who are willing to volunteer for offical roles on our Board of Directors, Senior Committee and Junior Committee. We express our gratitude to all these volunteers who will be leading the club forward in 2025. We also wish to thank Veronica Rankin and David Nicholas, who are now stepping down from board roles, for their past contributions.


PLAYER SPONSOR | MCR ELECTRICAL

Thank you to MACEY RYAN and MCR ELECTRICAL for Player Sponsorship of GEOFF BELL for the 2024 season.

“Joffa” has now racked up 31 games for Boronia Vets, and can always be relied on for 100% effort. The same can be said off-field where Geoff is one of our most dedicated and hard working volunteers, always lending a hand at Auskick and at match days. A great club man.


THANK YOU TO JULIE ALLEN | Biz Yourself

JUNIORS & SENIORS | WORKING TOGETHER

The boys were super enthusiastic and loved showing off their skills! They were thrilled with the bonus Hot Dog for Dinner! 

We appreciate you taking the effort to come out on a Friday evening in the cold and wet!! ????


WE’RE LOOKING FOR SOCIAL & COMMS CONTRIBUTORS

We are looking for some extra volunteers who would be able to help spread the load of looking after our social media and other communications like email.

Rather than the responsibility sitting with just one or two, we are looking for a few motivated people across the playing groups and supporter base who can commit to taking on specific tasks on a recurring basis each week to ensure we can communicate all the great things going on at our club in a sustainable way as the club continues to grow. Depending on the time you’d like to commit you could take on one of the tasks or maybe a few.

You may already have some skills in this area, be keen to learn more or are just looking for a way to throw your hat into the ring. Any training you would need on the systems we use would be provided and most items are now templated.

Some of the key tasks include:

  • Women’s Football & Netball Team Announcements
  • Men’s Football Team Announcements
  • Game Day Score Updates & Saturday Scoreboard Summary
  • Sharing relevant updates during the week e.g., Hawka Lotto, posts from junior page
  • Sharing posts from other relevant pages e.g. EFNL, Premier Data, Media etc
  • Sharing photos after games
  • Promoting club & player sponsors, sharing relevant updates
  • Promoting community partner offers
  • Promoting club events & news
  • Managing and distributing an email newsletter (something new)
  • Replying to messages
  • We’d also be keen to hear from anyone who would like to volunteer their photography, videography or graphic design skills in any way throughout the season or on a regular basis.

If you are interested in putting your hand up, please email me at boroniahawksfc@gmail.com with your expression of interest!

Thanks

Jax Phillips, Director of Communications
