Lloyd McDermott

Lloyd Clive McDermott is Australia's first indigenous barrister, and also the first Aboriginal person to represent his country in Rugby Union, playing for the Wallabies against the New Zealand All Blacks in 1962. He made a poignant statement by opting to withdraw from the squad rather than play as an "honorary white" on a subsequent South African tour. He has inspired many through his sporting, professional and personal life.
Born in 1939 at Eidsvold, Queensland, son of a farm labourer, Lloyd Clive McDermott's academic and sporting prowess won him a scholarship to attend the Anglican Church Grammar School at East Brisbane.
An outstanding schoolboy athlete, he went on to play on the wing for the Australia national rugby union team, commonly known as the Wallabies. Thus, he became the first Indigenous player to represent Australia. He played 10 rugby union matches for Queensland against Fiji, France and the New Zealand "All Blacks" while studying Law at the University of Queensland. He then played two Test matches for the Wallabies against the All Blacks in 1962. After refusing to participate in a 1963 tour to South Africa because of apartheid, objecting to being classified by the host as an "honorary white", he turned briefly to rugby league, playing for the Wynnum Manly club in 1964.
Lloyd Clive McDermott became Australia's first Indigenous barrister.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Australia / Players & Officials / Lloyd McDermott )〕 After graduating in law, he worked in the Commonwealth Deputy Crown Solicitor's Office, and was then admitted as a barrister in New South Wales. He now also holds degrees in science and criminology from the University of Sydney and the University of New South Wales. He continues to practise part-time at the Bar, mainly in crime and appellate work. Also a part-time member of the Mental Health Tribunal of New South Wales, he is also a trustee of the New South Wales Bar Association Indigenous Lawyers' Trust.
Throughout his career, McDermott has given time and energy to promoting opportunities for indigenous youth, male and female, as founder of the Lloyd McDermott Sports Foundation. In association with the Australian Sports Foundation, the Lloyd McDermott Rugby Development Team works with young people to achieve their dreams through development camps, educational scholarships and mentoring; the Team holds camps, training sessions and competitions in association with NCIE- the National Centre of Indigenous Excellence. He also serves as an Ambassador for Indigenous Fund of the Brisbane Boys College.
In 2009, at the Bar Association of Queensland Annual Conference, a highlight was the launch of the Mullenjaiwakka Trust for Indigenous Legal Students named in honour of Australia's first indigenous barrister Lloyd McDermott (Mullenjaiwakka).〔Hearsay, The Journal of the Bar Association of Queensland. Issue 34, April 2009. http://www.hearsay.org.au/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=591&Itemid=48〕 The Trust was established to assist indigenous law students towards a career at the bar. McDermott continues to practice at the New South Wales bar (although still proudly claims his Queensland heritage).
