Does rugby truly welcome LGBTQ+ players? In this episode of the Gay Rugby Podcast, we tackle the state of inclusivity in sports, from grassroots clubs to the professional level. While rugby is often praised as one of the most inclusive sports, LGBTQ+ athletes still face barriers both on and off the field. We explore how far the sport has come, where it still needs to improve, and the role of inclusive rugby clubs in creating safe spaces for players of all identities.We also highlight the impact of gay athletes in professional sports, including Carl Nassib, the first openly gay active NFL player, and discuss how increased visibility is shaping the future of LGBTQ+ representation in rugby and beyond.
