Touch Football Australia Inclusion Priorities

Touch Football Australia respects and honours the Traditional Custodians of the land and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and future. We acknowledge the stories, traditions and living cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples on the lands we meet, gather and play on.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander

Touch Football Australia has a zero-tolerance approach to any form of bullying, harassment, or racial vilification of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. Unjust treatment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples will not be tolerated within our sport or workplace.
