Merseyside has a range of LGBTQ+ inclusive teams to offer for those who are looking to get fitter or socialise with like-minded individuals.
It can be daunting to pick up a new sport and LGBTQ+ folk may worry there aren’t many like them in the team as often representation isn’t at the forefront of the sport industry. This, coupled with the fact many from the community have a negative experience with sports from their childhood, can put people off for life.
Luckily, in and around Merseyside, there are football teams, rugby clubs and sports societies available to join that pride themselves on being LGBTQ+ focused and friendly.
