NEW: A group of elite athletes, including gold medal-winning Olympians and Paralympians, are inviting fellow #LGBTQ sportspeople to their new network.

“Proud Champions” offers a space for those who are publicly out, and those who aren’t.

For @outsports.com
Out Olympians invite LGBTQ athletes, coaches to join new network - Outsports
'Proud Champions' is a legacy project from Pride House Paris at last year’s Olympics that aims to empower queer athletes.

Lars Fellows has always loved football but turned away from the game when he transitioned.

On the FvH Podcast, the #IKissedaBoy star speaks about finding joy again at Village Manchester.

He also criticises the FA’s new rules for trans men: “It’s trying to say we don’t belong.”
