This LGBTQ+ History Month, Jen Beattie teamed up with grassroots team Wonderkid FC to share what it means to find an inclusive community in football.
The resulting film features conversations around how football plays an integral part in the grassroots game as a safe space for aspiring players and the local community.
Wonderkid FC are a local London team founded by Maria Sihaloho and her partner Rhys who describe themselves as “a bunch of queers and allies, brought together by a film that raised awareness about homophobia in football in the UK. We are goalkeepers, filmmakers, wingbacks, art directors, strikers and producers.”
