Basketball Australia (BA) is a diverse and inclusive organization and is committed to providing a safe, fun and inclusive environment for all people, including those of diverse sexualities and genders. Being an inclusive sport not only reflects our values, but it also reflects the diversity of our local communities. BA will continue to work with our community to ensure Basketball is a safe space for all.
BA uses LGBTQ+ to recognize lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer/questioning members of the community. The + holds space for expansion of genders and sexual orientation. Our organisation recognises and respects all gender identities and believes everyone has the right to participate in a safe, respectful, and welcoming environment.
LGBTQ+ Inclusion Education
BA is proud to host LGBTQ+ inclusion education resources on our public facing LMS, Basketball Australia Cultural Awareness Training.
