Donnell is a proud Noongar woman and an ambassador for all First Nations people and our sport. We applaud and admire her strength, her courage and her dignity in the face of such hate.
Netball Australia and Netball Queensland are committed to First Nations inclusion in our great game. We all have zero tolerance of racism and all forms of personal abuse.
Netball Australia, the Origin Australian Diamonds, Netball Queensland and the Firebirds are providing Donnell our total support and care.
This weekend Suncorp Super Netball celebrates NAIDOC Week in our second First Nations Round of the 2024 season. The round celebrates the rich tapestry of traditions that define Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. The theme is "Keep the Fire Burning! Blak. Loud and Proud".
Publicly calling out racism in all its forms is a critical step to stopping the abuse.
