LGBT History Month is a national event taking place throughout February 2012. The theme for this Olympic year is sport. To mark this locally, Nottingham Ball Bois FC are co-ordinating a series of events. Some offer the chance to participate in or spectate local sporting events, others are celebrations of the Nottingham LGBT community and the sports that take place within it, others are educational events to inform about issues concerning homophobia and LGBT participation in sports. The events will be listed below with links to relevant websites and/or Facebook event pages. Please keep checking back throughout February for any amendments or late additions to the programme.
