Congratulations to Aspire representatives on Hockey Australia RAP Working Group22 Aug, 2021

Jess Fatnowna and Julie McNeil have been invited by Hockey Australia to join their RAP – Reconciliation Action Plan Working Group.

They join a very diverse group who have committed to develop and deliver Hockey Australia’s first REFLECT RAP. This is a great leadership opportunity for Jess in her role within Aspire to be Deadly and it’s a wonderful being able to share what Aspire to be Deadly is delivering to help lay the platform for national policy development at Hockey Australia.

Here is Hockey Australia statement relating to Reconciliation “As a sport that considers inclusion and equality among the values that are important to the hockey community, along with a proud record of indigenous players who have represented our country, at Hockey Australia we want to make our position clear. We value, welcome, and actively seek to create opportunities for indigenous people to participate and engage in hockey. As a sport, we seek to play our part towards reconciliation.”
