Welcome

BLAGSS is a sports and social group that now has around 470 lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender members from across Brighton and Hove, Sussex and beyond. 

Our aim is to encourage LGBTQ+ people and allies to play sport and make new friendships in safe places. It's as simple as that. Sport is so important because health, fitness and wellbeing is such a vital part of our lives. 

Our members have all different shapes, sizes, ages, abilities and disabilities - we participate in sports as varied as badminton, tennis, squash, table tennis, running, tenpin bowling, football and cycling and much more.

There's also a fantastic social side to BLAGSS. There are over 700 sporting and social meetings every year. Have some fun playing sport and then have a good old chat about it in the pub afterwards.

BLAGSS is a great way to meet people, keep fit, and have fun.

 

You can also try BLAGSS for free!  Come along to your sport of choice with a FREE 1-day membership (court fees may apply). Just go to the relevant sport page on this site and message the organiser.
