A Sensation for Gay Sports: Joint Games Planned Once Again for 2018!
 Finally! The message was expressed to us on March 6th from the annual EGLSF meeting in Manchester. Our FVV delegates sent off text messages as soon as the decision was official: the FGG and GLISA´s announcement that joint games would once again be held in 2018. This represents a giant step away from the conflict of the last decade. Fantastic! Just what we have been hoping for.

Outreach Eastern Europe: "Proud to be gay" at the 2009 XMAS Tournament
 Olympic fencer, Imke Duplitzer, the official ambassador of the 2009 Outreach program, attended the tournament's Friday Outreach lunch in person and spoke encouragingly to the sponsored athletes. One further highlight:
The "Bündnis für Demokratie und Toleranz" (Alliance for Democracy and Tolerance) honored and awarded a prize to the FVV Outreach program, which has made promoting the esteem of pioneering gay and lesbian athletes from Eastern Europe its highest priority. Summing it up, Outreach 2009 was, in spite of the worldwide financial crisis, successful once again in its sixth year and many sponsored athletes felt "proud to be gay" in Frankfurt for the first time in their lives.

I don't understand… do you speak English?
 New in Germany? New in Frankfurt? Are you looking for a gay sports club but you don't speak German or know just a few words? Do you think that you cannot make yourself understood and you won't be able to make new friends??? WRONG! FVV has many German and non-German members who speak several languages and most all speak some English… also, the entire FVV website leads a double life: since its rebirth in February 2008, it exists not only in German, but also in English!

Birmingham and Budapest...
… are sister cities of Frankfurt, as are other large, attractive cities in Europe and around the world. In addition to Birmingham and Budapest, Frankfurt is also an official "sister" to Toronto, Milan, Prague and Cracow. That's
nice, but what does this have to do with FVV and athletes from Frankfurt's sister cities? A whole bunch! Frankfurt financially supports the exchange of its citizens
with those of its sister cities, preferably regularly and in both directions, that is, we visit them, they visit us!
