We are so excited to finally share that Earth Treks climbing gyms are now one national community called Movement Gyms. Howdy @MovementGymsDMV on Instagram! It’s a new name for some, but we know it'll always be a community for all. And we have local LGBTQ DMV news to share!!! In the upcoming months, Unmatched will coordinate new LGBTQ+ YOUTH CLIMBING DAYS at Movement Gyms in Columbia, Hampden, Timonium and Rockville! 

Climbing days will be divided into two age groups i.e. 5-12 and 13-18 on separate days. We are currently planning for the Climbing Days at the Columbia Movement location scheduled in March 2022. So keep an eye out for details soon regarding dates and time. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at info@unmatchedathlete.org or social media handle  

More Info Coming Soon!

We thank Dick's and the EVOLVE Foundation for recognizing the need for more LGBTQ+ visibility in sports. Just as these two generous foundations firmly believe that sports provide the structure, foundation for discipline, and create hope for a better future—

We too believe that sports create a bridge— for LGBTQ+ youth to be ACTIVE, to be BRAVE, and to be THEMSELVES.

Sports & fitness should be accessible to all kids, no matter their identity, income, where they live or upbringing. We organize biweekly pickup games across the Baltimore-DC corridor. Let’s encourage more LGBTQ+ and allied youth to play together! To learn good technique, to make new friends, adapt healthy habits, have fun and push for that next goal; that’s what it means to be Unmatched!

Everyday is an opportunity to put in your best effort. Everyday you can improve. Let’s enlist the mindset to #LetKidsPlay!

We are excited to announce that we will be partnering with GLSEN Maryland! For those who aren’t familiar with GLSEN Maryland, they support students and educators locally, organizing around LGBTQ-affirming public policy, planning teacher trainings, and hosting events for students, educators, parents, and allies.
