Ryan Atkin, who recently became the first openly gay professional football referee in the world, participated in a conversation with author and broadcaster Frances Edmonds.
“The English Premier League is the most watched League in the world, which makes it a great platform to educate and nurture people,” Atkins said, in discussing his rationale for coming out. “I decided to openly come out as I believe the game needs it and I can drive change with the support of the professional bodies of making the sport inclusive for everyone.”
