Making Sport a Place for Everyone: A Panel Discussion

Sport has the power to bring people together, create meaningful connections, and foster a strong sense of belonging. Yet for many LGBTIQA+ people, sport has not always felt safe, welcoming, or inclusive.

Join the Pride Centre for an inspiring and thought-provoking conversation with representatives from three major sporting organisations as we explore what it takes to make sport a place for everyone.

This panel discussion will examine:

Creating genuinely inclusive sporting environments
Building a sense of belonging for athletes, staff, volunteers and spectators
The challenges and opportunities facing LGBTIQA+ people in sport
The role of allies, leaders and sporting organisations in driving inclusion
Tackling homophobia, transphobia and discrimination
Creating lasting cultural change across sport

Through conversation and shared experiences, our panellists will discuss the progress being made across Tennis, Netball and Football, the work that still lies ahead, and their vision for a more inclusive future in Australian sport.

Whether you're involved in sport, passionate about inclusion, or simply interested in learning more, we welcome you to be part of the conversation.
