Inhaltsangabe

Tall and short. Straight and queer. Sports has got a new frontier.

A rhyming romp through professional and amateur sports, Play Proud highlights sixty historic and modern queer athletes, from Billie Jean King to Megan Rapinoe, Johnny Weir to Carl Nassib. Readers will be on a first-name basis with each of them as they race through the wide world of sports, discovering role models who play hard, play fair, and play proud. The triumphs of these athletes--both on and off the field, court, rink, ring, and pitch--serve as powerful inspiration for everyone who seeks to live their life authentically. Back matter provides key stats on the athlete lineup, as well as a glossary and author's note about how sports can become accepting of everyone.
