The Stonewall Sports Summit is an equal component of our national tournament each year. This year's summit, 23 Chapters -- One Mission -- One Goal: Creating an Inclusive and Safe Space Through Community, will focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the LGBTIA+ community.
Participants will have the opportunity to network and reflect with others during the event and throughout the weekend. Breakfast and lunch is included. For more information, contact either of the summit organizers shown below.
