The One with Stonewall FC

In terms of sporting triumphs, it doesn’t get much better than becoming world champions – and that’s exactly what Stonewall FC did in Argentina last month as they became the ten-time IGLFA World Champions with a victory over West Hollywood.

They didn’t do it the easy way either, losing two centre-backs to injury and coming from behind to secure El Decimo – but champions find a way to win, and that’s exactly what Stonewall FC managed to do.

Manager Eric Najib, and players Fernando Martins and Shane McCullough, played a key role in Stonewall's triumph - and they're all with us on the podcast today to talk about how it happened.

We talk about that glorious campaign in Argentina; what it means to pick up victory after victory on the global stage; being part of such a prestigious tournament,; making it into double digits when it comes to World Cup wins and so much more.

Plus, in the midst of Stonewall’s Rainbow Laces campaign in the UK, we talk about the importance of inclusivity in the beautiful game; what draws straight allies to a club like Stonewall; making football a place where everyone can feel welcome and loads, loads more.
