Bulldogs players across all grades will wear rainbow socks at Wodonga Hockey Centre this weekend to show the club and the sport of hockey is inclusive for all.
"It doesn't matter what your background, race, religion or sex is, the sport of hockey is open and available to everyone," Wodonga president Kyle Brereton said.
"We find the players look forward to the weekend every year and it's growing in importance and recognition.

"The most important thing to come out of it is to ensure we're having that discussion and realise everyone is welcome to play hockey and be a participant within our club."
Fair Go, Sport was originally adopted by Hockey Victoria and Wodonga was the first regional club in the state to take it on.
"We're quite proud of that. It's something the sporting community needs to continue to work on," Brereton said.
