GAY GAMES 2023 UPDATE:

A message from the team after participating in the Gay Games in November 2023:

"Gratitude fills our hearts as we reflect on Lotus Sports Club's incredible journey to the Hong Kong Gay Games 2023. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that left us with unforgettable memories and a deep sense of appreciation.

A huge thank you to the organisers and sponsors who made this event and our journey to Hong Kong possible! Your support made the event a celebration of the unity, diversity, inclusion and strength of the LGBTQ+ community.

To be surrounded by such incredible LGBTQ+ people, athletes and allies was nothing short of amazing. The love, acceptance, solidarity and appreciation we felt during these Games will stay with us forever.

As we return home, we take with us a treasure trove of moments that we will cherish forever.

To all those who participated, organised, sponsored and supported us and the other athletes, THANK YOU!

Here we celebrate love, inclusivity and the power of sport to unite us all. "

Filmed over the course of five years, LOTUS SPORTS CLUB is an inspiring coming-of-age story about the only LGBTQ+-inclusive soccer team in Cambodia.

61-year-old Pa Vann — the coach and father figure — established the Kampong Chhnang team in 2009 to encourage solidarity among straight, gay, and gender-diverse players.

Opening his home to the more vulnerable, outcasted teenagers on the team, Pa Vann creates a safe place for them to be themselves.

Full of love, empathy, and kick-ass soccer tricks, this heartfelt documentary centers around Leak, a young trans man who plays for the under-21 team and has lived under coach Pa Vann’s care for many years. As he ages out of the league, Leak must make a decision that could mean leaving behind the one person he loves the most.
