Club summary

[edit]

The 2022 AFL season was the 126th season of the VFL/AFL competition since its inception in 1897; having entered the competition in 1925, it was the 98th season contested by the Hawthorn Football Club. Tasmania, iiNet, and Nissan continued as the club's three major sponsors, as they had done since 2006, 2013, and 2019 respectively,[3][4] while Adidas will continue to manufacture the club's on-and-off field apparel, as they have done since 2013.[5] Hawthorn will continue its alignment with the Box Hill Hawks Football Club in the Victorian Football League, allowing Hawthorn-listed players to play with the Box Hill Hawks when not selected in AFL matches.
