Hamilton Pride and Inclusion Day

Charles Beaton, Annie Nolan and Kaitlyn Ashmore joined Fi and Bec to talk about the inaugural Hamilton Pride and Inclusion Day. CTF Tiger Bree chats with Jayden Short and the Chicks wrap AFL Round 12. Hamilton Kangaroos FNC are teaming up with VFL Women’s clubs Melbourne University WFC and Darebin Falcons to support inclusion and equality. Hamilton Kangaroos FNC senior team will wear specially designed rainbow jumpers for the clash against South Warrnambool on June 17 at Melville Oval. On the same day, Melbourne University and Darebin will play the first VFL Women’s match at Melville Oval, in what is a re-match of last year’s Grand Final. With up to 40 AFLW representatives between them, MUWFC and Darebin will both also wear specially designed rainbow jumpers to support this initiative. By wearing the “Gay That’s OK” rainbow jumpers, all four Clubs are coming together to support equality and inclusion.

Everyone should be treated the same, regardless of sexuality and gender.

Football clubs have a big role to play in promoting inclusion and equality and providing positive role models for the LGBTI community. These football clubs stand together as inclusive clubs. No matter your sexuality or gender these clubs are safe places for the LGBTI community. The day has been organised by former Monivae College student Charles Beaton (from Gay that’s OK) and former Hamilton resident and well known Melbourne blogger Annie Nolan (UncannyAnnie). Luncheon to be held at Alexandra House from 12.30pm, with guest speakers including 3 time premiership player Russell Greene, Charles Beaton and Annie Nolan. Clinic to be held for local children on Sunday morning, featuring both VFL womens team
