World Gay Basketball Championships

About us

It's not just basketball, it's a community

OUT, PROUD, and VISIBLE. The World Gay Basketball Championships (WGBC)  was created to bring the LGBTQ+ and Allies together to celebrate our community, our culture and our diversity. The WGBC will allow the world to see who we are as we play the game we love. The WGBC will create positive images of the LGBTQ+ basketball community and  role models to those not able to be who they are.  This International LGBTQ+  Basketball event will change the lives, and communities of many through the love of the game of basketball.
