• Have you been inspired by the successes of the Lionesses or the WSL?

• Are you a fan of Arsenal or Gillingham or even East Cowes Vics?

• But....have you been scared to go to a match for fear of homophobia?

• Have you wanted to get involved but can't find an inclusive team?

• Have you wanted to play as your true gender but never been allowed?

Isle of Wight Pride are looking for players for our Charity Football Match on Sunday 2nd June.

Team Pride vs Allies Utd. 11-a-side, multi-gendered and all inclusive. Over 18s only.

No previous playing experience is needed, just enthusiasm and a passion for the cause. We will be raising funds, not only to support IW Pride and its projects, but also aiming to raise awareness of the issues facing the LGBTQIA+ community. Event entry will be free.

Not keen on playing but still want to get involved? There will be lots of roles on the day - some are footballing and some are not. Maybe you have a first aid qualification or are a sports coach who can help with warmups or are happy to help sell teas.

For more details, or to get involved please email: claire@iwpride.org or volunteer@iwpride.org
