In the coming weeks, the Supreme Court will rule on West Virginia v. B.P.J.: a case that will determine whether trans youth have the right to play on school sports teams that reflect who they are.

When that happens, the conversations in our communities matter. Join Lambda Legal, CenterLink: The Community of LGBT Centers, and PFLAG National for the context, language, and tools to navigate them with confidence.

Sports shape who we become long after the game ends — teaching confidence, leadership, teamwork, and resilience. 💪💜

Now, we want to hear your story.

Lambda Legal is collecting stories about the power of sports and why every kid, including transgender kids, deserves the opportunity to play.
Together, these stories will celebrate the life lessons sports teach and how they benefit us all — strengthening our families, neighborhoods, and communities.

This effort comes at a pivotal moment, ahead of a major Supreme Court decision expected this summer.

Do you have a story about how sports shaped you? Share a video, photo, or written story with us by May 26.
