NEWSLETTER JANUARY 2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

EDITORIAL

At the start of this new year, on behalf of Fier-Play, I would like to extend my best wishes to each and every one of you.
The past year has been marked by many changes and significant developments for our association. These transformations have enabled us to consolidate our project, clarify our ambitions, and strengthen our commitment to a more inclusive, respectful, and open sport for all.
We are approaching this new year with enthusiasm and determination, driven by exciting projects ahead, new collaborations, and a strong desire to continue developing and structuring Fier-Play. The actions taken in recent months demonstrate the relevance of our collective work and the growing importance of these issues within the sports movement.
I would like to express my immense gratitude to all of our partners, as well as our volunteers, whose commitment, energy, and trust are essential to the success of our actions. It is thanks to you that Fier-Play continues to move forward and make a difference.
Together, let’s continue to build a fairer, prouder, and resolutely forward-looking sport.

Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique Vidal, President of Fier-Play<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First training course delivered at INSEP<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

On December 4, Fier-Play spoke at INSEP during a morning training session organized by the Ministry of Sports, bringing together more than 90 representatives from federations and DRAJES, both in person and remotely. This session, co-hosted with the Alice Milliat Association, the LGBT+ Sports Federation, and Outrans, was supported by the CNOSF and the CPSF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The goal was to raise awareness among training stakeholders about LGBTIQ+ issues in sports. A more comprehensive module and practical information sheets are currently in preparation. In addition, the associations remain committed to providing dedicated training.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

LAB: Focus on non-binary people<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Between November and December 2025, Fier-Play organized three LAB workshops dedicated to sports for non-binary people. During nearly six hours of collective work, some fifteen participants from associations, universities, and institutions identified concrete areas for improvement. These reflections will inform Fier-Play’s future actions and proposals to the sports movement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

French rugby player J\u00e9r\u00e9my Clamy-Edroux, who played for Rouen Normandie Rugby and Stade Fran\u00e7ais, also represented France in the rugby sevens team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
