Everyone knows the best way to develop a young player is 5-7 minutes at a time.

Ok Captain Hendrich!

We're not hosting a watch party tonight (8pm is past our bedtime! and it's a holiday weekend + the end of March Madness), but admin might live-post during the match 👀

Thank goodness for the NWSL. Nice to see a supporter culture that actually prioritizes inclusivity.

Trans People Belong in View Kumi Yokoyama (he/they)

For Trans Day of Visibility we’re highlighting the accomplishments of famous athletes. Their accomplishments aon and off the field of play deserve to be celebrated. They are competitors, they are our teammates, and they are strong. We hope that these visible athletes remind us that sports and athleticism are important to the whole trans community. Their fight, grit, and determination enrich us all. Today we say Trans Athletes Belong.

The Spirit Squadron and Rose Room Collective are sharing the story of Kumi Yokoyama, a dynamic Japanese forward known for his creativity, technical precision, and attacking flair. Kumi made 12 appearance in two seasons with the Washington Spirit and was part of the 2021 Championship team. Beyond their on-field impact, Yokoyama has also been an influential figure off the pitch. In June 2021, Kumi came out as a transgender man in an interview with fellow Nadeshiko striker Yuki Nagasato. “[Canadian midfielder Quinn] wore a [sweatshirt] that said ‘Protect Trans Kids’ before a game, and I realized that’s what taking action looks like,” Kumi said in an interview with the Japanese Times. “To be able to accept people you have no relationship with, that’s the kind of person I’d like to become and I hope we can create that society.” Kumi is still playing professionally in the Nadeshiko League with Okayama Yunogo Belle.

This Trans Day of Visibility, we’re celebrating Kumi Yokoyama, a champion and history-maker in more ways than one. Thank you, Kumi, for your time with the Spirit and for living your truth! Trans people belong everywhere, on and off the pitch.

Cloud 9 is sharing the story of Harrison Browne, the first publicly out transgender athlete in professional hockey. While Harrison came out as a transgender man to teammates in college, he did so publicly in 2016 as a professional player for the Buffalo Beauts of the NWHL. He won the Isobel Cup with the Beauts in the 2016-17 season, and again with the Metropolitan Riveters in 2017-18. Harrison also helped form the first ever transgender policy in professional sports.

Following his retirement from pro hockey in 2018, he has become an author, actor, and filmmaker. In 2025, Harrison and sister Rachel published a non-fiction book about transgender inclusion in sports called Let Us Play. He developed and produced the short film Pink Light. Most recently, Harrison appeared in a guest role in the series Heated Rivalry. We’re proud of Harrison’s accomplishments on and off the ice, today and every day!

Chicago Local 134 Supporters Group is highlighting Chris Mosier. Born in Chicago, Chris is a trailblazing transgender triathlete, duathlete and hall of famer recognized for both his athletic achievements and advocacy. He is the first transgender athlete to represent the United States in international competition, the first transgender athlete in an ESPN Body Issue, and the first transgender athlete sponsored by Nike. He is also the first transgender athlete to qualify for the Olympic Trials in the gender they identify.

Chris created the site transathlete.com, a resource for students, athletes, coaches, and administrators to find information about trans inclusion in athletics at various levels of play. He has mentored transgender athletes around the globe, from high school and recreational to the professional levels, and helped teams, leagues, and professional sports leagues create gender-inclusive policies. Thank you, Chris, for your continued determination to fight for trans and LGBTQIA+ inclusion in sports.

Jenna Bike gets the start!!! 🚴🏻‍♀️

if you're only reporting that the IOC has banned transgender athletes, you are missing a huge part of the story: the IOC is now requiring genetic testing for ALL WOMEN ATHLETES.

Transphobia hurts everyone.

Yes!
