Nathalia Football Netball Club 2021 Debutante Balls

Well, the long-awaited nights finally arrived, a full 12 months and four dates later, on Friday 24th and Saturday 25th of June, our debutantes and their partners participated in their Debutante Ball at the GV Hotel in Shepparton, our 17th Annual Debutante Ball. 

Over two nights, 19 debutantes and their partners were presented to our VIP Guests, Francis Bourke and his wife Kerry, NFNC President David Liddell and his wife Denise and our Debutante Trainers, Laura Harvey-Hawkins and Maddison Pawlowicz. Our adorable flower girls and page boys, Mille Bruce and Jake Bloodworth on Friday night and Ella Schram and Bodhi Bourke on the Saturday night, were centre stage to view the beautiful presentation and dancing of our debutantes and their partners. 

Our hosts for the evenings, Nikita Pawlowicz, Dan Sullivan and Matt Carroll created an elegant and entertaining tone to the evening and shone as first-time hosts of our ball. Our debutantes were beautifully represented by Emily Bell, Patrick Bennett, Jorja Eddy and Harry Mayberry in speaking on behalf of their respective Deb sets to thank all of those involved in making their night happen. 

Dance trainers Maddison Pawlowicz and Laura Harvey-Hawkins again choreographed the beautiful dances that our debs presented, including a spectacular “Masquerade” dance with debs and their partners adorned with Masquerade Masks and a smoke covered dance floor creating a dramatic dance where the debs and their partners excelled.
