Know The Game acknowledges the support of the AFL Multicultural Program
The AFL recognises that Australian Football has the capacity to bring people together from diverse cultural backgrounds. With this in mind the Multicultural Program was developed to introduce young people from targeted culturally and linguistically diverse communities to Australian Football, and to influence mainstream Australian Football clubs to embrace multicultural diversity as part of their ongoing operations. The AFL wants Australian Football to be a vehicle that encourages community strengthening and inclusion within the wider Australian community.
AFL Multicultural Program Manager, Nick Hatzoglou, says “The football world needs to recognise that providing meaningful opportunities for people from migrant and refugee communities to participate in all levels of football whether that is as players, umpires, involved in decision making or becoming fans of the game is our collective challenge. How well we do this will determine the health of the game in years to come.”
Know The Game supports these aspirations and is pleased to be working in unison with the AFL Multicultural Program. Learn more about their program.
