Welcome to season 2010.
 
Established in 2007, the Law Hawks are the Official In-House Lawyers’ Supporter Group of the Hawthorn Football Club.

The Law Hawks comprises passionate Hawthorn supporters involved in all areas of the legal profession.

The Law Hawks enables lawyers, their staff and others to interact and network through their common love of football and shared passion for the Mighty Hawks and to entertain guests and clients in a relaxed setting.

You don't have to be legally qualified to join the Law Hawks although you do need to be connected with the legal profession.

The Law Hawks consists of representatives of the judiciary, barristers, solicitors, corporate and academic lawyers, law students, members of the police force, legal executives, legal secretaries and others engaged in the legal profession.
 
We are involved in advising the Club and where appropriate appearing for players before the AFL Tribunal and Appeals Board.

We have also established Law Hawks tables at the City Hawks functions organised by the Club at the RACV and we urge all Law Hawks to attend at least one of these functions. It is a convenient way to network and support the Club.

Membership is now over 150 lawyers and continues to grow whilst membership is free.

So if you are eligible to join and would like to mix with like-minded passionate Law Hawks your free membership can be arranged by emailing Bec Denton or Geoff Denton (details below).
 
Please also feel free to email to us the names of other potential Law Hawks and we will contact them and welcome them to the cast.

Members are invited throughout each season to meet past and present players, coaches, presidents and Club administrators. Over the past 3 years the Law Hawks have hosted:
  • Campbell Brown
  • Jeff Kennett
  • Graham Arthur
  • David Parkin
  • Michael Tuck
