“Sports Free” is fighting for queer athletes in professional sports who still have to hide their identity.
With your support, you are making “Group coming out in professional sports” possible. This is not only a call for athletes, but for everyone – athletes, children, youth and the whole society. It is a chance to send a clear message: “How do we want to live? Who do we want to be?”
Starting on IDAHOBIT on May 17, 2024, Diversero hereby declares the 17th of every month as the worldwide “Sports Free Day”. On this day, actions can take place around the world to raise awareness of the challenges that queer athletes face in professional sports and to offer them our unconditional support.
