Koroit Saints
Artist – Bayley Misfud (Merindah-Gunya Art)
The Koroit FNC indigenous jumpers and netball bibs have been designed by recognised Aboriginal artist Bayley Mifsud – Merindah-Gunya, the daughter of club legend Jason Mifsud, a proud Kirrae, Peek, Djab Whurrong family of Gunditjmara Nation.
The design symbolises the connected meeting places of the three groups within the Maar nation (Peek, Kirrae and Djab Whurrong); represents Bunjil (the ancestral wedge-tail eagle) and the Cockatoo (Gunditjmara totem); and represents Koroit as a meeting place, showing people coming together to play sport.
