Paris Foot Gay


Paris Foot Gay is an amateur, local league football club from Paris, the capital of France. The team is made up of around 30% homosexual players.
Since 2007, it has been in partnership with Paris Saint-Germain FC, the city's sole top-flight club. Vikash Dhorasoo, a heterosexual former French international and PSG player, is the club's patron. Alain Cayzac, PSG's President at the time of the deal, has been PFG's honorary President since 15 May 2010.

Charter

In addition to its team, the club has the goal of combatting homophobia in football and wider society. It composed a charter, which has been ratified by nine professional, national league clubs. The first club to sign it was Paris Saint-Germain, the capital's sole top-flight club, on 5 September 2007. The two clubs agreed on a partnership in the same deal. On 29 November 2012, OGC Nice, the third signee, were struck from the agreement following homophobic chanting by their fans against their rival, SC Bastia. Paris' City Hall signed the charter on 31 May 2011.

Créteil Bébel incident

On 4 October 2009, Créteil Bébel, a Créteil-based club composed entirely of practicing Muslims, refused to play PFG due to their religious convictions. Bébel were permanently expelled from the local football association as a result.
