We are Chile’s first sports club for trans and non-binary people. Since 2019, we train and compete while building a safe, caring, and politically explicit space.
Disforia FCTrain, compete, and build community through sport.
We were born because many trans and non-binary people were excluded from formal sport. Disforia FC responds with training, collective care, and real competition in a safe space.
“It is a family, a safe space to play football.”
