LGBT+ Sports Club Finder
That’s club as in nightclub, not football club. You don’t need to be ‘a member’, wear a extraordinary kit or have any particular skill for bowling. So there are no pre-requisites for attendance.
We were founded in 2017 by newlyweds Marc & Luke — who had just moved to Manchester, and had no idea how to make friends in a new city. They invited the few people they knew to approach bowling one Wednesday, and extended the invite to friends-of-friends. The rest, as they say, is history.
In the years since, we’ve expanded our presence to cities across the UK, helped forge hundreds of new friendships, and proudly represented the UK at international LGBTQ+ ten-pin tournaments across Europe.
It turns out, queer people everywhere want a way of making new friends.
If you’re one of them, we’d adoration to meet you sometime.
Love and pins,
Team GCB x
