Today marks the 16th annual International Transgender Day of Visibility.
Today, we celebrate transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse people worldwide and within the TUC community. We recognize both the progress made toward equity and the work that still lies ahead.
In light of the IOC’s recent decision that will prevent transgender women from participating in the LA28 Olympics, it’s clear that the fight for inclusion and equity is far from over. Trans rights are human rights. Decisions like this set back progress and reinforce the urgency of continued advocacy.
Now more than ever, we must live our core value of inclusion—by educating ourselves on transgender issues, raising our voices against transphobia in all its forms, and committing to the ongoing work needed to protect and uplift trans lives.
We see you, and we love you!

Catch the Spirit Tournament Recap
Last week we hosted our annual Catch the Spirit Tournament and welcomed 30 teams across two separate events! The energy, sportsmanship, and level of play were outstanding and a true showcase of high school ultimate in our community.
Thank you to every team that competed and represented their schools so well.
A special thank you to our sponsors and volunteers. Events like this only happen because of the time and commitment of those working behind the scenes. Your effort made both events a success.
