REGISTER TO ATTEND HERE

 

Adelaide University Sport in partnership with Squash SA and local LGBTQIA+ sporting clubs is hosting a FREE multisport community event on April 12th 2025 at Park 10, North Adelaide (corner Frome Road and MacKinnon Parade, next to Graduates Clubhouse). This event is part of the Pride in Sport Festival, a nationwide calendar of LGBTQIA+ led activities which aim to welcome new participants into sports and celebrate the achievements of queer sporting communities.

Visit us on your way to Gather Round, the AFL's South Australian football extravaganza - we're just a short stroll from Adelaide Oval, which will be playing host to the Carlton vs. West Coast match at 12:50pm.

What should I expect?

  • A welcoming and supportive morning of connecting with local clubs, meeting members, having some fun and playing some sport.
  • Try out a variety of sports including squash, tennis, rugby, volleyball and more. No experience necessary - these activities are for all skill levels!
  • Inflatables! Great fun for the young and the young at heart.
  • Prizes! Win an exclusive Pride-themed basketball by posting a Story or Post to your Instagram account and tagging the event. More details on the day!

Extra activities on the day:

  • Meet up with the Adelaide Frontrunners before the event begins for their Torrens Parkrun leaving at 8am. For more information, check out Adelaide Frontrunners on Instagram.
  • From 10am, Hike Society will be doing a one-hour walk around North Adelaide's parklands, leaving from and returning to Park 10. Come to the event prior to 10am to get involved with this hike.

Who is welcome to attend?

  • The Pride in Sport Festival is all-inclusive, and this event is open to all members of the community - not just university students or affiliates. Come along yourself, and we encourage you to bring your friends, family, work colleagues, and other community members and allies.
