Queensland Cricket is committed to creating a safe, positive and respectful environment for everyone involved in community cricket through the Respect the Game Initiative.
The project aims to promote positive behaviour across the game, encouraging players, parents, coaches, volunteers, umpires and supporters to play their part in upholding the spirit of cricket.
Together, we can create an environment where everyone feels welcome, respected and able to enjoy our game.
We acknowledge and pay respect to our First Nations people and Traditional Custodians of the land and waters where we are privileged to live, work and play. We recognise and celebrate their spiritual and ongoing connection to culture and country. We respectfully acknowledge all elders past, present and emerging as we continue to cherish shared wisdom and grow with their guidance as we walk together toward a connected country.
Queensland Cricket's indigenous artwork was collaboratively designed by former Queensland Fire player and proud Kunja woman Mikayla Hinkley and Brisbane Indigenous artist, Delores McDonald (“Aunty Delly”).
The centre circle represents the Gabba, alongside other water holes which used to be near the ground. 87 black strokes on red earth represent the wickets taken by Aboriginal great, Eddie Gilbert who played 23 games for Queensland.
