4TH ANNUAL XMAS TOY & FOOD DRIVE

Wow! Just WOW! A massive thank you to everyone who donated to our 4th Annual Christmas Toy & Food Drive to support @knoxinfolink.

The amount of donations was incredible. Your generosity and kindness will help make Christmas a little brighter for over 300 families this year.

This is what the Boronia Hawks spirit is all about — a passionate, hard-working community club that loves its suburban footy and netball. ???

The Boronia Hawks family gathers for a group photo in front of the club’s new building under construction, celebrating community spirit and teamwork.

To all the players, supporters, volunteers, and support staff who came down to celebrate another incredible year, thank you for making last night such a huge success.

Celebrating the success of the Christmas Toy & Food Drive with smiling faces from the Boronia Hawks community.

We couldn’t do it without you. GB & Sammi!

BORONIA HAWKS | DOING OUR BIT

Our charity partners Knox Infolink sent in a nice text message to ABC Radio Melbourne yesterday when they were talking about sporting clubs and the community work they do.

A really great listen with Richelle Hunt and Paul Kennedy on the ABC’s The Conversation Hour-Why Sporting Clubs Matter. Here’s some footage from Wednesday night and a snippet of the story.

3rd Annual Christmas Food & Toy Drive

Wow! Our 3rd Annual Christmas Food & Toy drive in support of Knox Infolink was held last night in beautiful conditions at Tormore Reserve. With all Senior Mens & Women’s teams, Masters, Vets and some Juniors training together it was an awesome way to roll into the upcoming Christmas break.

Thank you very much to everyone who was able to contribute something to support Knox Infolink Inc in their ‘Share the Joy’ Knox Christmas Appeal.

Our donations just get bigger and bigger each year, something you should all be very proud of as these donations do make a big difference. Thanks to Ellen for cooking a BBQ and the fruit afterwards.

The Boronia Hawks community can feel very proud of our annual Xmas contributions to KNOX INFOLINK. We thank them now for their kind recognition of our efforts to support them in 2023.

Pease take a moment to read the letter of thanks to our Senior Secretary, Grant Bertram, and Auskick Co-ordinator, Samantha Dunkinson, who were closely involved in our Xmas drive for donated foodstuffs and gifts for the local community.


A Xmas Message from Flash


This year has been most memorable indeed. Two Senior Premierships are feats most clubs can only dream about! At ‘The Hawka’, we do dream, we dream big, but we then do!

Thank you to the magnificent players who donned the Hawka jumper in 2023. You all made us proud! Thank you to the coaches, trainers, and tireless volunteers who work behind the scenes to enable our club to function effectively, and thank you to our supporters who turn up week in and week out cheering loudly and giving our players the 5% extra support over the opposition which can at times win us matches.

I had the pleasure recently of spending a weekend away with some lifelong Boronia mates talking about just how fortunate we have all been to have been associated and connected with our club. We were all grateful for the friendships and experiences we have all shared together, some good, some not so good but we still enjoy a catch-up after 40 years!! This is what our club can offer, does offer, and will continue to offer!!

We will continue in the off-season to enhance our playing lists, plan the intricate design details of the new pavilion, and detail our social calendars for season 2024!

Once again, enjoy your well-deserved break and we’ll see you all next season! Wishing you all a safe and Happy Xmas!!!

A Xmas Message from Flash!

To all players and supporters of the BHFNC, on behalf of the senior committee, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Our club is well-placed to attack the 2023 season with confidence. Thanks to our coaching staff, coterie group, and the work of our many volunteers over the finals campaign, our energies are clearly focused on making 2023 a season our club won’t forget in a hurry.

As the year progresses, we expect to be able to update you all on a regular basis on the progress of our new pavilion. This pavilion will be the benchmark for clubs in the Eastern Suburbs. Such an exciting time to be associated with our club!

So rest up, stay fit if you are a player, stay safe and I look forward to welcoming you all back to pre-season training in the new year.

For those attending Wednesday night’s final all-club training session, please remember to bring some food and a new toy for a donation to our local community in need. Please click here for more information.
