RELIVE THE 2023 MLQ CHAMPIONSHIP

TAKE BACK THE PITCH

Take Back the Pitch is a showcase that challenges the current understanding of gender in quadball and opens opportunities for gender-diverse athletes to play quadball out from under the scrutiny of misogyny, transmisogyny, and misdirected misogyny. Through the open-access Take Back the Pitch tournament, MLQ aims to highlight and lift up athletes that are overlooked by their teams and in the community on account of sex and gender, and give them the leadership opportunities, playing time, and diverse skill training they deserve all the time.

Games will run 11 am ET - 5 pm CT.
