Welcome back to RACHAEL PARNES who is registered and paid up for 2024. Rach played 19 games for both the Development Women and the Masters last season, doubling up on some days. We can’t wait to see her enthusiasm out there again!
A big thank you to MARY DOYLE MP, our local member in the Australian Parliament, for her ongoing support and interest in our club. Mary’s can be contacted at her office or via her website www.marydoyle.com.au We are looking forward to seeing you at the footy Mary!
We are very excited to welcome Jenna Basse to the Hawks!
Jenna has recently moved back home to Melbourne after living in WA where she played for Swan Districts in the WAFLW, and more recently with Swan Valley in the Perth Football League. Jenna’s got an elite combination of agility, skills, game sense, football IQ and killer instinct around goals and we can’t wait to see her in action!
Congratulations to Cleo on being named in the Eastern Ranges’ Under 18’s Squad for 2024. Cleo joined Boronia this season and is keen to add to her tally of games with Ranges while also being a great recruit as the Hawks return to Premier Division.
Let’s all stop for a moment and think about the tremendous contribution of women to our club as we recognise #internationalwomensday Thank you for everything.
The fixtures are out and the Hawks are excited to be fielding two senior teams in Premier Division and Division 4.
Thank you to JANINE RULE and @stockdaleleggo_ferntreegully for player sponsorship of SAMANTHA DUNKINSON in the 2024 season.
Sam is one of the hardest working volunteers at the club but still found time to debut in our inaugural Masters team and will be pulling on the famous pink boots again this year. Photo by courtesy of Field of View Sports Photography
Thank you to SCOTT NICHOLAS for his sponsorship of RACHAEL SLATER for the 2024 season.
Rachael is coming off a highly successful 2023 season with a Division 1 Premiership Medal, the Ellen Johnson Medal for Senior Women’s B&F and the Blue Ribbon Medal for BOG in the Grand Final.
We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Cleo Smith to Boronia in 2024.
Cleo is an 18 year old currently part of the Eastern Ranges Coates Talent League Squad, and after playing two games in 2023, will be looking to be a consistent performer in 2024. Joining us from Wantirna South, Cleo plays predominantly in the ruck, has great hands and agility for her size, and can play in a number of other roles. We’re excited to support Cleo’s development and can’t wait to see her in brown and gold this season.
We’re excited to welcome Mikayla McNamara to Boronia in 2024!
Mac has an accomplished netball career previously playing at a high-level, and after playing a handful of games with Ferntree Gully in 2022, she is back to give football another crack. An elite combination of size, strength, athleticism and overhead marking ability we’re excited to see Mac develop over the course of the season with the Hawks.
