INCLUSION ROUND
10-17 June 2025
AFL Barwon Inclusion Round celebrates diversity and belonging in football and netball, ensuring everyone—regardless of background, ability, or identity—feels welcome and valued. Supported by Inclusion Partner, Leisure Networks, this round promotes awareness and reinforces our commitment to an inclusive sporting environment.
In 2025, Pride celebrations are part of Inclusion Round, further highlighting our dedication to equal opportunities in sport. Inclusion goes beyond accessibility—it’s about fostering respect, removing barriers, and empowering all to participate, coach, officiate, or contribute in any capacity.
Football and netball unite communities, and AFL Barwon is committed to breaking down barriers and championing a culture of respect and support.
