St Kilda Football Club is proud to announce its Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) and unveil the 2019 Sir Doug Nicholls Round guernsey.
The RAP will serve as an extension of the club’s commitment to belonging and inclusivity, aiming to contribute to Australia’s reconciliation journey through acknowledging, respecting and sharing the histories and cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
ON THIS DAY: Nicky Winmar debuts
“While many sporting clubs understand the virtues of diversity and promoting inclusion, they are themes that can be found deep within the St Kilda Football Club’s DNA,” Saints CEO Matt Finnis said.
“They have, and always will be, central to our spirit, which remains proudly creative, progressive and human-centred.
“Our vision is for all Australians to be inquisitive, to seek greater understanding of the traditional custodians of our lands and to reduce the gaps that currently exist between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and other Australians in health, life expectancy, education and employment.”
The launch of the RAP coincides with the release of the club’s Sir Doug Nicholls Round guernsey for the 2019 season.
