Australian Football has the extraordinary power to bring people together regardless of background.
Everything’s possible when we unite through the love of the game.
This Toyota AFL Multicultural Round, we celebrate cultural diversity at all levels of Australian Football.
We highlight the contribution multicultural communities have made to the game’s history and welcome new communities to embrace Australia’s game in the future.
Each QAFL and QWAFL club playing this weekend will don orange shoelaces to recognise the diversity that exists throughout our game.
As part of our QAFL coverage, we will be live blogging Saturday’s Palm Beach v Morningside match, with a multicultural twist, highlighting some of the local players who come from diverse backgrounds.
All community clubs are encouraged to be involved on match day, in ways such as getting multicultural players to perform the coin toss or using ground announcements to highlight the significance of the round.
Tweet and share your photos from the weekend, mentioning @AFLQ and @QAFLnews or using the hashtag #manyculturesonegame.
Selected teams in regions around the state will also don the orange laces over the fortnight of the round.
Many Cultures, One Game.
Get your tickets today for the 2014 Toyota AFL Multicultural Round, 18 – 27 July.
