Pitching In Isthmian League supports Rainbow Laces campaign

Lace Up and Speak Up' is the key message for this year's annual activation of the Rainbow Laces campaign for LGBTQ+ inclusion in sport.

The Isthmian League will be among the competitions kicking off a visible show of support this weekend and up until the official Rainbow Laces day on Wednesday 08th December.

With a fresh look and focus, the campaign's central call to action is for athletes, coaches, officials and fans to wear laces while also contributing to conversations that help to ensure people who are lesbian, gay, bi and trans feel welcome and comfortable in their sports spaces and environments.

The Isthmian League are proud to support such an important campaign. Each of our clubs have been sent a Rainbow Laces Activation Pack with ideas about how they can support the campaign and provoke discussion and awareness around inclusivity and LGBTQ+ experiences within football.

Please contact our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Director Lee Vehit should you wish to find out more about the work the Isthmian League are doing around equality, diversity and inclusion.
