Extra sports

A tournament built like Rotterdam

The Sailor Games bring together LGBTQ+ participants and allies for a weekend of sport, connection, and a little harbor-style swagger. Think: matches by day, meet-ups by night, and a city that knows how to host.

Inclusive by design
Clear code of conduct, welcoming vibes, and a team that takes safety seriously.
Nautical theme
Anchors, ropes, and Rotterdam harbor energy — without taking ourselves too seriously.
Rotterdam, NL
Easy to reach, full of character, and proud to be a Rainbow City.
Coming soon

Volleyball
