Chairman Mike Turner from the Tritons is a top guest:
- How he'd never been into sport until he discovered the Tritons.
- The Bingham Cup.
- The way inclusive clubs provide support to players off the pitch as well.
It's a good 'un, this.

Great to hear our Chair, Mike, discussing with @jack_murley about finding and loving rugby as an adult after not enjoying sport as a child.
๐ฃ๏ธ "We are more than just a club. We are some people's extended family".
The Liverpool Tritons take centre-stage on the podcast, as we talk rugby, inclusivity, growing as a team - and keeping together in a pandemic.

The move by @WorldRugby goes against the wishes of many national unions and is anything other than inclusive. We hope that @EnglandRugby follow the lead of other national unions and refuse to apply these guidelines to the community game in our country. We fight on!
With an announcement on the @EnglandRugby response to @WorldRugby proposed ban on trans women due imminently, our Chair, Mike, spoke to @LCRPride about our active opposition to the proposals and the potential effects on the community of our otherwise very inclusive sport.

We talk with @TritonsRUFC Chair & @IGRugby Regional Rep Mike Turner about what World Rugby's proposed ban on Trans Women players could mean.
Take a look ๐๐

Today we remember the selfless and heroic actions of Mark Bingham aboard United Airlines Flight 93. Thanks to @IGRugby for the post.

Thank you to everyone who supported our 500 miles fundraiser for @LCRPride - we raised ยฃ400! ๐๐ท
Thanks too to @merseymfc and Liverpool Frontrunners for the inspiration.
Along with @IGRugby & our fellow inclusive teams globally, we are standing up for the rights of trans people to play the sport that we love. @WorldRugby's leaked proposal for a blanket ban on trans women in the sport is against everything we stand for. See igrugby.org/transgender-non-โฆ
We did it! We did over 500 miles ahead of @LCRPride MarchONline tomorrow!
Thanks to everyone who's sponsored us so far, but we still need your help to reach our ยฃ500 target! So please, this Pride weekend, spare us the price of a pint for @LCRPride at gofundme.com/f/p9chy-liverpoโฆ
Following the leaked recommendations proposed by @WorldRugby, we continue to believe that rugby is a sport for ALL.
Sign the petition to urge @WorldRugby to reconsider its recommendation.

Leaked recommendations proposed by @WorldRugby would create greater barriers for participation of trans people in our sport, which is not what we as an inclusive club stand for. We support @IGRugby's statement.
