SBS News | An abhorrent slur used by their own teammate in the A-grade competition has seen the departure of nine Aboriginal netball players in their stand against racism.
A group of proud Aboriginal netballers have given up on "the sport they love," following racial abuse by their teammate.
An incident took place this month during a local country A-grade netball game, as part of the Kyabram District League - located near Shepparton in regional Victoria.
Recounts detailed in a letter from club management described the exchange where a player had used a racial slur toward an Indigenous player and had repeated the slur after being told this was inappropriate.
