Casey Conway

Casey Conway (born 1985) is an Australian of Aboriginal Australian descent. He went to boarding school in Yeppoon at St. Brendan's College, which had a specialised rugby league programme and is where he was discovered by Arthur Beetson for the National Rugby League team the Sydney Roosters. He did describe a perception of change in professional sport, however:

There's not too many [professional athletes] who have come forward, but I definitely think there's been a change. There are lots of different sporting identities, clubs and codes that are saying, "we're for equality". I think that's really great. It's really positive. and Sluggers.

Conway was a board director and ambassador for the youth-led LGBTQ organization Wear It Purple and represented it at the 2021 Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras.
