Diversity and Inclusion

Sport is for everybody - irrespective of ability, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or faith.

At Melbourne University Sport we believe that all students, staff and local community members should access our sport and fitness services to fully enjoy the health and wellness benefits our services can provide.

Everyone is welcome here, and we are actively working to provide a friendly and inclusive sport environment for all to enjoy.
