Welcome to the Bristol City Panthers FC website!
We're an LGBTQIA+ friendly football team based in Bristol. Founded in 2000, we're a club that believes in providing everyone with a fun, supportive environment to play football, learn new skills or develop skills and make friends. All players are welcome, whatever your experience, ability, sexuality or gender identity. We are proudly affiliated to Bristol City FC through the Bristol City Robins Foundation. We were only the second LGBTQIA+ club in the country to have a formal affiliation with an English Football League side.
As of the 2024/25 season, we offer everything from 5-a-side to 11-a-side competitive and friendly football. We play in Division 1 of the GFSN (Gay Football Supporters Network) league, as well as the Shield and Cup competitions, and, for the first time this season, we will play in as a co-founder of the South West Pride Football League. This league offers inclusive and accessible football for all in the region of the South West. In addition to this, we run in-house friendlies to ensure all within the club have the opportuntiy to play 11-a-side football.
We offer two types of football each week, with 5-a-side football every Monday 7-8pm and full team training 8-9pm every Thursday, both being at Imperial Sports Ground, BS14 9EA in South Bristol.
