The home of the Sydney Swans is on the land of the Gadigal and Bidjigal peoples and we are proud of the deep engagement we have forged with these communities. Our club strives to be a leader in promoting equality and justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
The Sydney Swans support constitutional recognition for First Nations peoples, and as such, we are supportive of a Voice to Parliament.
The Sydney Swans has been enriched by the contribution of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples on and off the field, including some of the greatest players to play our game.
Our previous support of constitutional recognition has included our team proudly wearing the “R” on our guernsey in support of the Recognise campaign, which aimed to spark conversation about change. More recently, we have supported the Uluru Statement from the Heart.
Our club is proud of our journey in understanding and supporting First Nations peoples.
The Sydney Swans are committed to playing an active role in Australia’s reconciliation journey. We will continue listening and learning, to deepen our understanding.
We believe the upcoming referendum is an extremely important moment in Australia's history and encourage our members and fans to seek out the information they need to form their own views.
