What football players are gay
It’s hard to believe it was little over a year ago. Just 12 months ago, the foremost women’s soccer teams from across the globe and their fans converged on Australia and New Zealand to crown a novel World Cup champion. We cheered on the perennial powerhouses and celebrated the debutantes. We saw some of the most unbelievable feats of athleticism…one target after another reminding us why they call this the beautiful game. We got to watch legends of the game move beyond the torch to a whole new generation of ballers, many of them queer. We felt the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.
It was glorious. So, let’s do that again, shall we? Well, minus the post-championship assault…let’s not accomplish that again, ever (I’m looking at you, Bruce Mwape).
Twelve of the world’s best teams have earned their opportunity to rival for Olympic gold and their quests begin ahead of Friday’s Opening Ceremony. If you need some help preparing for 16 days of footballing deed, I’m here to assist. Here’s a look at how the Olympics serve , who to follow for in-depth WOSO coverage, and, of course, the most important question of the day: who all’s ga
Welcome to the gayest league in all of women’s international sports, or so I believe: the super league, alternatively known as the premier league. In other sports (namely, the WNBA and NWSL), I was able to locate double as many confirmed straight people as confirmed gay people. That was just not the case here!
This year’s season is already in full swing, but there’s still plenty of time to decide a favorite team. This list is designed to help you do exactly that. The way football works in the UK is that the foremost team in the league moves up and the bottom team moves down. Since I’m only hunting the highest bracket, you’ll find that the teams do move around a bit from year to year.
As always, if I missed someone or if you feel like someone is incorrectly on this list, let me understand in the comments or send me an email at writethroughthenight @ gmail . com.

What is Sports Free?
Sports Free is an initiative that advocates for greater awareness and acceptance of queer athletes in professional sports. The initiative was started by Diversero, a global community that advocates for diversity and against bullying. Marcus Urban is the co-founder of the organization.
Who is Marcus Urban?
In 2007, Urban became Germany's first former football player to arrive out as lgbtq+. Born in 1971 in the former East Germany (GDR), Urban was one of the most talented young footballers in the communist state. As a midfielder for Rot-Weiss Erfurt he played in the uppermost youth leagues and represented the GDR at various youth levels.
He almost turned professional in the early 1990s, but decided against the career move, deciding that the pressure of being a professional football player while having to hide his homosexuality would be too much for him.
What is planned?
Diversero is planning to host a platform on Friday, May 17, the International Night Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersex and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT), for professional footballers to jointly declare to the world their homosexuality or q
