Pride Round is an annual celebration within the AFLW of diversity and inclusiveness, raising awareness of the importance of what Pride represents within the LGBTQIA+ community. Keep an eye out for the Pride-themed celebrations during the match, and at half-time, a special drag performance from Deal Misdale!
