*Baliyang means 'bat' in Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung language. This word was chosen to reflect the Bat Story, which was shared with the club by Uncle Lex Dadd and incorporates the club's ethos of inclusivity. Thanks go to Aunty Gail Smith and the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation for allowing us to use this word.
