Boekhorst is 20-year-old midfielder who hails from Port Hedland in Western Australia.
He has been playing for Swan Districts in the WAFL and enjoyed a breakout season in 2014, representing Western Australia against a combined NEAFL team.
Carlton’s National Recruiting Manager Shane Rogers says Boekhurst impressed the Blues recruiters.
“Blaine ticked the boxes for us with his speed, agility and outside run. He’s the type of player who really takes on the opposition and will give us some depth in the midfield,” Rogers said.

“I’m just a running midfielder who breaks the lines, makes good decisions, has good skills with hand and foot and is someone who can take the game on and provide the x-factor,” came the reply.
“I’ve focused my energies into footy to hopefully get drafted and realise my dream. Now I’m hoping to put my foot in the door and make a name from there.”
