Charlton v Homophobia Football Tournament

Greenwich football

A great day was had at the Valley yesterday for the Charlton v Homophobia football tournament. The event was a collaboration between Proud Valiants, Charlton Athletic fans who identify themselves as part of the LGBT community, Bexley Invicta, a local gay friendly football club and the university’s LGBT+ network.

The university team was made of a variety of different staff members, students and others associated with the university. A good crowd attended to watch with Greenwich fans definately the loudest!

The matches were excellent, very competitive and evenly matched, and despite very little practice and a very hot morning the Greenwich were the winners having beaten Bexley Invicta and drawn with Charlton (Proud Valiants).

Huge congratulations goes to all involved and we look forward to next year.
