We’ll Go Down in History

‘We’ll Go Down in History’ is the story of TRUK United FC, a grassroots, proudly trans football club, formed in January 2021.

Talk of transphobia
At a time when so many in our society are fighting to exclude trans people from sport altogether, this programme follows those who have chosen to create the spaces they were denied. Existing openly in athletic spaces is an act of defiance in itself. But it is also about joy. It is the joy of belonging somewhere that was built by and for you.While trans bodies are being scrutinised, criticised, and policed more than ever, these two films say loud and clear: trans people belong in sports!
