CASTING CALL

This year we will be creating a short film to remove the stigma surrounding trans people's participation in sport. The film will highlight how trans and intersex people are welcomed and valued members of sports clubs around Ireland. We are looking for LGBTQ+ teams, teammates and transgender, non-binary, and intersex athletes who would like to participate in the film. The selected participants will be invited to attend the filming sessions in the Sport Ireland Campus in early / mid 2026 (final date TBC) where they will be interviewed and filmed playing their chosen sport.

Please submit a short video (which can be filmed on your phone) with a brief description of yourself / your team, your sport and why you would like to participate in the production.

Deadline for submission is the 21st of January. Please contact [email protected] to register and for more information.
