Emerald City Kickball Members Prepare For 2024 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - FEBRUARY 27: Emerald City Kickball members are seen during their final full dress rehearsal on February 27, 2024 in Sydney, Australia. Emerald City Kickball began in 2020 as a project between friends to find a safe and affirming way to create an inclusive community during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a recreational sport that is available to players regardless of skill or experience level, kickball quickly became a vibrant piece of the Sydney LGBT community. Emerald City Kickball has marched in Mardi Gras for four years, receiving nominations or special commendations each year they have marched. The 2024 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras Parade will be held on Saturday 2 March 2024. (Photo by Don Arnold/WireImage)
