Football (Mens)

We are a football team for the LGBTQ+ community and our friends.

We pride ourselves on our inclusive approach, everyone plays and is part of the team. This includes our competitive games. In 2023 we adopted the name 'Blagss Buccaneers' to represent our seaside location and our playful and adventurous approach to football.

We run regular training sessions, and we enter all sorts of different tournaments and events.  

We are in the GFSN nationwide 11 a side league for the 2024/2025 season, with 10 competitive games including away trips to Manchester and London. We recently went to Eurogames in Vienna and we also hold an annual Football vs. Homophobia exhibition match. 

We are looking to recruit new players to for training and to complement our existing squad, so please get in touch.
