Welcome to
The Netherland’s largest inclusive rugby club
The Amsterdam Lowlanders provide a team where LGBTQ+ people and allies compete in rugby as a positive force for advancing diversity and inclusion in sport and society.
We promote the sport of rugby, developing LGBTQ+ players to their highest potential in a safe, inclusive, enjoyable environment while encouraging discipline, integrity, and diversity.
Our teams
- Lowlanders M teams (Pink and Orange), made up of people who identify as (trans) men, or non-binary and other gender non-conforming people who choose to compete in the men's division.
- Lowlanders Aqua team, made up of people who identify as (trans) women, or non-binary and other gender non-conforming people who choose to compete in the women's division.
Our teams are 95% LGBTQ+ but as an inclusive team, everyone is welcome to join us regardless of sexuality.
When and where
Our home is the Amstelveen Rugby Club (ARC) where our players also integrate into, and support other teams (First XV, Second XV, Third XV and Women’s teams) to promote inclusion in the game and eliminate homo & transphobia in rugby through community outreach & competitive play.
All Lowlanders M and W train on Mondays from 8-10pm.
