Social Media is a great way to explore and connect

Social Media is a great way to explore and connect with others around you, and for everyone’s voices to be heard.

Unfortunately, some of these voices are used for discrimination, including racism, sexism, homophobia and other means.

Social media companies need to do better in removing these abusive comments, including more preventative measures, consequences for perpetrators and more accountability for the protections they should be providing.

Therefore, Bristol Bisons is taking part in the Social Media Blackout alongside England RFU other sports clubs to highlight this issue.

The blackout will start at 3pm 30th April 2021 until 12pm Monday 3rd May.

#DrawTheLine

The consultation is still open at the RFU, so it’s not too let them hear your feedback.

“A game for all. Rugby really is a game for all

“A game for all. Rugby really is a game for all shapes and sizes and all kinds of player.”

That is how England Rugby Football Union (RFU) described the sport.

That is how England RFU describes the sport while in consultation to restrict access to Trans* Women.

That is how England RFU describes the sport while deeming Trans* Women above 170cm a ‘safety concern’.

That is how England RFU describes the sport while deeming Trans* Women over 90kg a ‘safety concern’.

That is how England RFU describes the sport while deeming Trans* Women a ‘safety concern’ within dimensions frequently exceeded by cis women playing rugby.

That is how England RFU describes the sport while players of all shapes, sizes and genders contest the motion, to truly keep rugby a sport for all players.

Bristol Bisons truly believe that rugby for all, and that rules proposed discriminating against trans* and non-binary people have no place in the game. As a club, we implore England RFU to consider against their proposed changes.
