The Carlton Football Club has today proudly revealed its 2026 Pride guernsey.
Dynamic, vibrant and united by Navy Blue, Carlton Football Club’s AFLW Pride Round design, created by Bella Whitaker, celebrates the power of football to bring people together.
Drawing inspiration from the colours of the Progress Pride Flag, the guernsey proudly represents the LGBTQI+ community, with abstract illustrated figures celebrating the diversity of people who experience and participate in the AFLW, reflecting its inclusivity and welcoming spirit.
A bold flag motif runs through the design, creating connection, symbolising the unity of the LGBTQI+ community, and the idea that everyone can find their place within, or alongside it.
Energetic graphic elements bring excitement to the design, capturing the lively atmosphere of AFLW match days and the joy of coming together to celebrate the game.
As a distinctive Carlton touch, traditional ‘skin tone’ colours have been replaced with navy blue. Representing the shared connection between fans, players and the wider Carlton community.
Pride Round is a chance for the Carlton community to come together, show support for the LGBTQI+ community and celebrate the people who make the AFLW what it is. Dynamic, diverse and united by a shared love of the game.
The 2026 Pride guernsey will be available by auction only, opening Thursday 8 October and closing Friday 16 October. Follow Carlton's social channels to be the first to know when the auction is live. Proceeds will go to the Carlton Pride supporter group.
The Pride tee is available to purchase from The Carlton Shop here.
