The Hornets have been growing steadily since their inception in 2018, and are looking for more local LGBTQIA+ members to join their squad and get in the game.

Listen to the full conversation here.

If you’re interested in some AFL with fellow LGBTQIA+ folks, you can connect with the Perth Hornets on Facebook and Instagram.
