A-Leagues pride 一連の会議、交渉/完成する can 栄える: Cavallo

Adelaide 部隊d midfielder Josh Cavallo is 確信して A-Leagues players will embrace and support a league-wide pride 一連の会議、交渉/完成する にもかかわらず "disappointing" 問題/発行するs with a 少数,小数派 of players in other codes.

部隊d and Melbourne Victory's Pride Cup men's and women's 二塁打 header at AAMI Park on February 26 is 推定する/予想するd to lead into a league-wide pride 一連の会議、交渉/完成する that 週末.

類似の games and rainbow jersey 率先s in other codes have not been universally received.

NBL outfit Cairns Taipans chose not to wear their pride jersey, while NRL 味方する Manly had seven players sit out of a game last year because of their 対立 to the 概念.

But Cavallo, the ALM's first 率直に gay active player, was 確信して those 問題/発行するs were only minor 障害物s and football would embrace the 概念.

Asked about the Taipans' 決定/判定勝ち(する), Cavallo said: "Yeah, it is disappointing.

"I know and I'm 用意が出来ている that we're going to come across that.

"In the A-Leagues it's phenomenal because everyone got around it and whether you're gay or straight, it was fantastic to see everyone at Adelaide 部隊d and everyone in the A-Leagues, the men's and the women's getting behind it.

"So if we do something special as we're doing in the A-League and continue to grow that, I think leagues like the basketball will see the difference and the 影響 it's having not only in their 冒険的な game but around the world and around Australia."

Victory and Adelaide ALW captains Kayla Morrison and Izzy Hodgson also said the Taipans' approach was 残念な.

"It's disappointing to see anybody not standing up for what's 権利 or turning their 支援するs on such a big 問題/発行する nowadays," Morrison told reporters.

"There's already so much hate in the world, so to continue doing that in a big open space where you are 影響する/感情ing kids and other people, it's really sad to see."

Hodgson relished 存在 "at the 最前部" of football's pride movement while Cavallo said he'd only received 肯定的な feedback from his fellow footballers since coming out in October 2021.

"I can't speak for everyone but based on Adelaide 部隊d and the people I've spoken to in different teams, they've said to me, 'Look, this is a fantastic 率先' and they are all in for it," he told reporters.

"To hear my fellow チーム仲間s and my fellow competitors say that, honestly it makes me so happy on the inside."

Pride Cup 長,指導者 (n)役員/(a)執行力のある James Lolicato told AAP that sports needed to have long lead-in times for events like pride 一連の会議、交渉/完成するs to 許す for proper 約束/交戦 of players and staff.

Victory men's 船長/主将 Josh Brillante said his team had embraced an education program and relished the 適切な時期 to wear special pride jerseys with rainbow 削減する.

"We have a 壇・綱領・公約 to be able to be inclusive to everyone and show our support for the LGBTQ community," he said.

"It's a 広大な/多数の/重要な way for us to show that by having this game."
