Federal Triangles Soccer Club (FTSC) is hitting the pitch for something bigger than soccer! Join us on October 12, 2025, for the Kicking Out Transphobia (KOT) Tournament. Established in 2020, KOT is a community-led initiative centering transgender, gender-nonconforming individuals. Through the power of sports as a tool for joy, connection, and resistance, KOT creates inclusive spaces that uplift trans and nonconforming people while raising awareness about the challenges our community faces. From grassroots projects to educational campaigns, KOT uses sports not just to play—but to build visibility, foster solidarity, and advocate for justice (to learn more about KOT, click here: https://www.kickingouttransphobia.org/ ).

KOT DC '25 is currently planned as a 5v5 tournament where everyone registers individually and is guaranteed at least three games. Base cost for registration is $25, with the opportunity to buy limited edition KOT DC socks for yourself and raffles tickets (or open donations) for two amazing charities, SMYAL and Rainbow Railroad!
